Chapter 337 Everyone is happy(1/2)
Emperor Chong returned to his bedroom, turned over and started to find that it was already the next morning.
This time he did not make any fuss and calmly went to court to handle affairs.
In the court, he announced that he would hold a sacrifice to the city god of the capital.
All the ministers were stunned.
They did not expect that at this time, a group of national silenced party members and eunuchs had just been dealt with. There were many things in the court, and Emperor Chong actually wanted to sacrifice to the gods.
And according to time, this is not the time to worship the capital city god.
The 11th day of May is the Christmas Day of the Capital City God, and the sacrificial activities are of course also on this day.
It was May 11th, but it was still very early.
The ministers quickly dissuaded, saying that this was not the time for sacrifice.
Emperor Chong said firmly, "I have decided and will personally preside over this sacrificial activity..."
The Minister of Rites didn't know what Emperor Chong was suddenly going crazy, and he said speechlessly,
"Your Majesty, let alone the more than half a year before the Christmas Day of the City God in the Capital, I will talk about the City God sacrifice, but it is just a small sacrifice. Why do you need your Majesty to preside over the presidency of the... "
Emperor Chong said, "I am not the original capital city god Chen, but a new capital city god, so there is no need to hold a sacrifice on May 11th. You can arrange it as soon as possible and after the arrangement is made, the sacrifice will be held..."
When he was invited, the new city god said that the sacrifice was just a formality to make it look better, so he didn't have to care about the date and just let him hold the sacrifice as soon as possible.
The Minister of Rites was surprised and said, "The new City God of the Capital? Is Your Majesty trying to re-deem the title of City God? But I don't know which loyal hero you want to enfeoff?"
Emperor Chong said, "This new capital city god was directly appointed by the upper realm of the Heavenly Court. It was not my intention to re-authorize it. So you just do what I said, and don't ask too much."
The ministers looked at each other, only to find that the emperor's words were utterly silenced.
Although there were indeed immortals and Buddhas in this world before, they had disappeared for many years. No one of these ministers had ever seen immortals and Buddhas appear, and only some evil demons were in trouble.
So many of them sneered at the Heavenly Court delegation.
Some people even began to worry whether His Majesty was bewitched by some evil spirit.
Suddenly, an official who was not afraid of death jumped out and began to cry and advise. Never be bewitched. My son did not say anything about the strange power and the spirits were in chaos.
The civil servant group of the Ming Dynasty was hard to say about the outside world, but it was very tough on the inside, especially on the emperor.
Some civil officials even take pride in being able to confront the emperor.
Looking at these guys jumping up and down, Emperor Chong's face became darker and darker, and he actually missed the eunuchs who had been cleared by him.
Although those eunuchs were corrupt and fond of power, they at least only followed Emperor Chong on the surface and never explicitly fought against Emperor Chong.
Emperor Chong said angrily, "I just want to hold a mere city god sacrifice. What do you want to do? Do you think I have not killed enough people during this period?"
The following is quiet, and those civil servants just want to show their strong will.
As Emperor Chong said, although the sacrifice of the city god is a bit unruly, it is just a trivial matter.
The most important thing is that it did not harm the interests of their civil servant group, but it was not worth losing his life for this.
However, although they kept their mouths shut, they still sighed and looked like they looked like they were watching. We had tried our best to persuade them, but His Majesty did not listen.
Emperor Chong was so upset that he said coldly, "It's settled, and the Ministry of Rites will start preparing for sacrifices tomorrow and retreat to the court..."
After returning to the study, he secretly summoned Fu Tianchou and wanted to ask about the killing of the Demon National Master and his group, and also wanted to ask about the situation of his daughter Fu Qingfeng.
After Fu Tianchou was summoned, he was a little surprised when asked about these things.
In fact, he had already reported to Emperor Chong for the situation of Yan Chixia and others.

At that time, he said that the national teacher was killed by a master.
But Emperor Chong did not ask about these things later.
Now when Emperor Chong asked, he obviously wanted to recruit him, but he was actually quite happy.
After all, he promised Yan Chixia that he would recommend him to Emperor Chong to serve as an official.
But he was actually not sure of the current momentum.
At this time, seeing Emperor Chong ask about it on his own initiative, of course it saved him some effort.
So Fu Tianchou talked about what he explained, Yan Chixia's situation.
After hearing this, Emperor Chong nodded and thought to himself,
"Yan Chixia seems to be a really capable person, and with the City God as a guarantee, there should be no problem with her character. At least she will no longer be like the national teacher, she is a demon..."
After the incident of the National Master, he did have many prejudices and fears against religious people such as monks and sorcerers.
In fact, the position of national teacher is not a real official position, it is the title of the emperor to a master with a profound cultivation.
However, Emperor Chong trusted the national master very much, which allowed the national master to gain great power, and even colluded with eunuchs, forming a force in the court that should not be underestimated.
So this time, even if he wanted to recruit monks such as Yan Chixia, he would no longer be prepared to give him the power and opportunity to interfere in the government affairs.
He had already thought about setting up an independent department that was only responsible to him and specializes in handling various monsters and monsters.
There were not many departments like this before, but they were already in name only.
After all, the world was not so chaotic before. Taking into account the strict rules of heaven, no matter whether it is an evil cultivator or a demon, he dared not blatantly disrupt the humanitarian dynasty.
After Emperor Chong thought about it, he told Fu Tianchou that he had thoughts.
He said that he was going to establish a department called "Baoxie Division" and was going to recruit Yan Chixia, so he became the commander of the "Baoxie Division".
Although this commander was in charge of the fourth rank official position, he had no real power. Only when the court needed him to kill demons and eliminate demons could he apply to mobilize soldiers.
Fu Tianchou is the Minister of War, and he can control the newly established "Evil-Breaking Division".
After hearing this, Fu Tianchou thought it was feasible, so he agreed.
Then Emperor Chong said again, "The few people who are with Yan Chixia can all be recruited into the 'Evil Breaking Division', and you will do this..."
Fu Tianchou responded, but he muttered in his heart that the emperor didn't even want to see Yan Chixia before, so why do even the others want to recruit them now?
However, he didn't know that after Emperor Chong was mentioned by Xiaoqian, he was still skeptical about the statement that several people had luck, but he thought that he would rather believe in him than believing in him. He thought that he would recruit people first and put them in his idle position. It would be of course good to be useful. If he didn't have it, he would be a idle person to support him.
After saying this, Emperor Chong said again, "By the way, does your dear have a daughter named Fu Qingfeng?"
Fu Tianchou was stunned, "Your Majesty, I do have a woman named Fu Qingfeng. I wonder why Your Majesty asked?"
Emperor Chong smiled and said, "Your daughter is not married yet, are you?"
Fu Tianchou guessed something and said, "My daughter has already engaged to the eldest son of the Minister of Revenue, Mr. Hou, the eldest son of the family of the Minister of Revenue. I'm sorry to worry about His Majesty..."
Emperor Chong said, "Oh, did your daughter get engaged with Hou Aiqing's son in a marriage letter?"
Fu Tianchou said, "Is that there's that? It's just that my verbal agreement with Lord Hou a few years ago that I'm back this time, I want the two to get married after a while..."
Emperor Chong said calmly, "It's good if you don't have a formal wedding letter..."
Fu Tianchou was stunned, not knowing why Emperor Chong said this.
He thought Emperor Chong wanted to give marriage or something when asked about this.
It is not surprising that I have this idea. In the original trajectory, Emperor Chong personally gave Fu Qingfeng a marriage to win over Fu Tianchou.
When the emperor gives marriage, it is usually given to the princess and the children of the ministers. This is a great honor and reward.
But now, from what Emperor Chong said, he did not want to marry Fu Qingfeng and the son of the Hou family.
Fu Tianchou didn't know what Emperor Chong meant, so he didn't dare to easily interfere, but just responded only to it.
Emperor Chong said, "I'm not hiding my dear, the reason why I suddenly want to worship the capital city god this time is that I got the new capital city god in my dream and learned some things. And there is something about your daughter..."
He said that the city god of the capital was a matter of heavenly marriage between Fu Qingfeng and Ning Caichen.
It is said that if this marriage is not promoted, it will be backfired by luck. If it is promoted, it will be rewarded with luck.
In fact, this is not Nie Xiaoqian's nonsense tricks to Emperor Chong.
If Fu Tianchou follows the original trajectory, he will not care about Fu Qingfeng's wishes and forcibly marry him to the son of the Minister of Revenue.
But Fu Qingfeng ran away with Ning Caichen, so he must be implicated and questioned.
The emperor gave a marriage, which was not a joke. In this way, it would almost mean that Fu Tianchou was fed back by luck.
If Fu Tianchou could agree to the marriage between Fu Qingfeng and Ning Caichen, everyone would be happy.
Xiaoqian was able to cut off the cause and effect of the entanglement with Ning Caichen, and the Fu family did not have to bear the charge of bullying the emperor.
And Emperor Chong actually has benefits.
After knowing that Fu Tianchou was going to marry the Minister of Revenue, he had some thoughts.
At this time, the civil servant group had basically no rivals. If the Minister of War and the Minister of Revenue were allowed to marry each other, this would not necessarily be a good thing.
If it were the past, even the emperor would not be able to interfere in such a thing. The emperor would not interfere in the marriage between his ministers and his children, it would not be very good for him if it was heard.
But now that he has received guidance from the City God of the Capital, he no longer cares a lot about face.
So I simply thought about using this as an excuse to ruin the marriage between the two families.
Fu Tianchou was really stunned, and he didn't expect Emperor Chong to say that.
To be continued...
