Chapter 119 Before the Storm (Part 2)

...

After a while, the queen, dressed in elegant and simple clothes, came with the help of the maid. The women who were originally chattering immediately closed their mouths. However, Xiaoxiao, now she is particularly well-behaved. After staying in the palace for a few years, she politely said: "Xiaoxiao meets the Queen, the Queen, the Queen, thousands of years of thousands of years of thousands of years of thousands of years of thousands of years of thousands of years of thousands of years of years of thousands of years of years of years of history."

The other girls followed suit and bowed to the queen.

"It's all my sisters, and there's no need for so much courtesy." The queen hurriedly helped her up one by one, and smiled enthusiastically: "Don't say that this is not in the palace, even in the palace, there are not so many rules for the sisters to meet."

That was a trick between them and women, so I naturally wouldn't interrupt. I looked up at the white clouds.

"Your Majesty, you really have a vision. All the sisters are fairy-like and have a lot of appearances." The queen praised in disguise: "The Empress Dowager is going to see her, so she is very happy."

"Sister is the most beautiful person."

"Ahem." I hurriedly stopped them. If the women praised each other, it would be endless. I had to say, "Youhong, you are standing outside, it's so cold. Go and sit inside and talk."

I won’t describe the reunion of all the girls. If they really write down their conversations, it might be another million masterpiece.

In short, under the leadership of the queen, whoever is against whom and whoever is incompatible with whom can only let go of everything.

...

That night, in the study, I was lying on the Taishi chair, closing my eyes to rest. Xiao Duozi was busy, helping me massage my back and changing the problem.

Li Linfu knelt in front of me with a straight body, reporting all the news to me one by one, as well as the tasks I arranged for him, the execution progress, etc.

It took Li Linfu a straight hour to report.

"Lin Fu, get up." I breathed a sigh of relief and called out. Everything was going well in the plan, and the preliminary work of each step was almost done. Now everything is ready, and I only need the fish to take the bait.

"Little Duozi." I called indifferently.

"Slave is here." Xiaodaozi hurriedly patted his body and knelt in front of me.

"Prepare, Ming said to return to the palace." I stretched and said, "It's been a while since I came out, it's time to go back."

"Slaves respect the order." Xiaodaozi responded with a serious expression.

"Your Majesty, why don't you send some experts from the East Factory to protect the emperor back?" Li Linfu said loyally.

"No need." I waved my hand and said, "You retreat first and do your business well." Just kidding, we all went back to the palace together. We were so strong that we couldn't find a second team to search for trouble in the world. Even if the Heavenly King came to find fault, we would probably fight back.

"I respect the orders of the empress." Li Linfu kowtowed again before facing me and bowed his head to retreat.

"Your Majesty, please rest sooner." Xiaodaozi also sued and said, "I'll go down first and prepare."

...

I was speechless all night. The next morning, I told the news about my return to Beijing. Unexpectedly, the guy Liu Zhenming, who had already "dead", got the news early in the morning and wanted to follow me with tears and snot. That fat man was scared by the elusive kung fu of the people in the martial arts world. Although the sedan chair was sitting in the sedan chair yesterday, he had been on the floor where I was drinking and saw the story from the beginning.

I was so angry that I almost kicked him to death, mom. I was originally a man on the same boat, and I could take this opportunity to take a trip to the silver. However, although his poor performances could not deceive me, they could coax the queen. The queen thought that he was an important minister of the Great Wu, and this time she was frightened, so she agreed to him return to Beijing with us.

Well, after he goes back this time, he will hide it for the time being. Let's go with us to cover up the news that he is still alive.

When I went back all the way, because of the big light bulb of Liu Zhengming on the boat, I flattered and beat around. The girls and I could only work secretly. The ridiculous idea of ​​sleeping with the big quilt could only be temporarily thrown into Java. Fatty, he must have deliberately ruined my good deeds. I was so angry that I bit my teeth and decided to wear them one day.

...

As soon as I returned to the palace, some well-informed ministers asked to meet them in Nanshufang. Liu Zhenming's death had already spread as quickly as possible. All Dawu was shocked. I was too lazy to see those guys. Only a group of important officials whom I rely on were summoned by me in Nanshufang.

Among them are the Grand Tutor Qin Yin, the Minister of War and the Prince's Young Guardian Duan Hong, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and the Prince's Young Master Xie Zhongyi, the Grand Secretary of the Censor and the Prince's Young Master Zhang Mian. The Grand Secretary of the Cabinet Yang Juzheng, the Minister of Rites Wang Zhaoguang, the Minister of Justice Ouyang Mi, the Minister of Personnel Gu Hongliang, and the Minister of Works Xu Liang.

As a result, all the red ministers and important officials of the court gathered together. Only Jian Lingtai was thrown to the Mongolian Rakshasa by me and led the army to fight and train.

Fortunately, I had already transformed it into a cabinet office. Then I put up a chair and let the people sit down one by one after another after the salute.

"Your Majesty, Lord Liu is really?" Qin Yin knew that I was also in Suzhou. It was said that something could happen to Liu Zhenming, so she could only ask nervously: "Mr. Liu is really already?" He was also nervous at this time. Liu Zhenming was a capable man, and he had a set of economic and financial management. The economic lifeline of the entire Great Wu Kingdom was in full order. Taifu Qin looked down on this fat man from the beginning, and later he relied more and more heavily on it. Now he is a little inseparable.

As soon as he said this, the others also showed a look of inquiry. Obviously, they were very concerned about Liu Zhenming's life and death.

"Oh, Liu Aiqing is devoted to the country. I originally wanted to take advantage of public service and provide private services. I gave him a vacation and went to Suzhou for a few days. Who knew that this happened?" My sadness appeared on my face: "This is all my inconsiderate thinking, which has hurt Liu Aiqing."

My performance quickly made the hopes on the faces of all the ministers fade. Liu Zhenming is a versatile person and has a good relationship with everyone, but they all look sad. Yang Juzheng was the first to jump up and sighed with tears in his eyes: "Zhengming, you are so unfair to die. In fact, don't think that your teacher is not giving you a good face, but you are the most proud disciple. Although you are usually greedy for cheap, stingy, and like to flatter, you are even more greedy for life and fear of death, lustful and unethical, and have a little disregard for behavior..."

"You old man is praising me or hurting me..." Liu Zhenming, who was hiding behind the scenes, was quite moved to see Yang Juzheng sad for him. However, the more he heard the more something was wrong. Although the sentence that followed was too long, he couldn't help but jump up again.

When the ministers saw that Liu Zhenming, who had been killed by the Ding family, suddenly jumped out and were shocked. However, the minister was a minister after all. After a moment of being stunned, they realized that Liu Zhenming was just pretending to die. His face turned worries into joy. They all stepped forward to surround him and congratulated him.

"You, you, you are not dead." Yang Juzheng was so angry that his beard was raised, and he raised his hand and called him: "Oh, you guy, you didn't learn well from school, you deceived the teacher all day long... When you are old, you will still deceive the teacher's tears."

He chased and beat Liu Zhenming to the Mannan study room and begged hard. When the ministers saw the farce between their master and disciple, they all laughed loudly, and the haze was gone before.

"Okay, OK." I laughed in my arms: "You two should also restrain yourself, don't pretend that I don't exist."

The master and apprentice who were having a good time remembered that I, the emperor, were still present. I hurriedly knelt in front of me with a serious expression on my face and apologized.

"Everyone get up and sit down. It's time to discuss the main business." I coughed twice, and after they all sat down, I said: "The reason I have concentrated all my dear friends in this Nanshuo room today is because there are many things that are inconvenient to discuss in the court."

Everyone looked like they listened.

"You are now qualified to sit here, which proves that you are all my confidants, the important ministers I rely on, and the indispensable right-hand man." The emperor's technique was perfect in my hands. As soon as this said, everyone's eyes showed an excited look.

"I believe you are all smart people." I paused, glanced for a week and said, "From Liu Aiqing's deception, and the secret decree I submitted to you, you can probably know why, right?"

"Does the emperor want to launch a global strategic deployment plan?" Taifu Qin is the leader of this plan. Most of my secret orders are handed over to him, so he can quickly infer it. Others also nodded with a serious expression. This matter is not trivial. Once successful, Da Wu will dominate the world with a domineering attitude. Of course, for the sake of the concept that the earth is round, he has given them many lessons to correct it.

"That's right." I took a sip of tea and said firmly: "You are all the major planners and executors of this plan. I believe you have already learned this huge strategic plan thoroughly?"

All the ministers nodded together.

"Xu Liang and Xu Aiqing." I called out.

"I'm here." Xu Liang, who was in his forties, had half his white hair, kneeled in front of me like an old man with vicissitudes of life. It can be seen how heavy the burden on him was after I came to power. Not only did he feel ache for him, but this guy was very honest. He didn't even do corruption and bribery, but he usually devoted himself to work, and he didn't even enjoy it at all.

"Weapons and equipment manufacturing are all done, right?" I asked softly.

"If you go back to the emperor, your current weapon and ammunition reserves are enough to cope with the five-year consumption of all the troops in Dawu." Xu Liang said respectfully: "In addition, the number of Zhanhu and Shenji Jinpeng each reached 500, which exceeded the planned number."
