Chapter 2140

2140

At dawn in the morning, march to the imperial palace, Mingyuan Hall.

The officials went to the court one after another, and the ones who walked in the front were Qi Wang Su Qi, uncle Luo Beiwang and others.

Because of the disappearance of the prince Su Yun, the eldest prince Su Mo was also left in the imperial city this time, walking with several princes who had a good relationship.

However, what made the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty even more strange was that Tu Yue, the commander-in-chief of the shadow guards, who seldom appeared on the public face, even less, walked silently among the officials in a serious official uniform.

Tu Yue's whole person was like a shadow, low-key, silent, seemingly inconspicuous, but the officials of the Manchu Dynasty had to treat it with caution.

Tu Yue didn't say hello to anyone, and few others dared to initiate a conversation with Tu Yue.

When the court officials took their positions, the eunuch shouted "Your Majesty is here", and all the officials knelt down and shouted long live.

Ming De Emperor Su Gan was dressed in a dark golden wind-patterned imperial robe, walked up to the main hall with a majestic expression and sat down, waved his hands, "All Aiqings, let's be flat..."

"Long live thanks!"

Su Qian glanced at the officials present, and when his eyes fell on Tu Yue, he flickered slightly, and said, "My dear friends, who has a book to play?"

Uncle Luo Beiwang stood up, "Your Majesty, the crown prince has been missing for a long time, and his whereabouts have not been found yet. I think we should send more people to investigate more suspects!"

Su Qian frowned, and said: "I have given full authority to Master Tu to investigate this matter. As the heir of the country, the crown prince went out of the palace without authorization to take risks. Even if he comes back, I will punish him for his crimes!"

Luo Bei looked at it, his face was a little uneasy, and he quickly backed away.

The eldest prince Su Mo stepped forward at this time, and said: "Father, my ministers have learned in the past two days that as soon as spring began in the northern border, the barbaric Arguna and Borkin clans have started fighting again.

The Barbarian King Buchahar confirmed that he had left the Barbarian Palace for more than half a year, and his whereabouts were unknown.

The leaders of the two tribes and the tribes have turned their backs and are speeding up the competition for war supplies.

The two tribes of the Wild and the Wild started fighting among themselves, and our people who conquered the northern border suffered a lot.

Although the Marquis of Zhenbei had already returned to Beiming City early to command the resistance against the barbarian army, the battle situation was chaotic and it was time to employ people.

This son-in-law has been in the northern border for many years, and now he misses his comrades in the army and the local people in the northern border, and hopes that his father will allow him to go to the northern border again and guard the border for the great expedition! "

Luo Beiwang and other officials from the pro-prince faction couldn't help looking at Su Mo with complicated eyes.

Now that the prince is not around, it is undoubtedly time for the eldest prince to take advantage of the situation and rise up.

At this time, what he was most worried about was naturally being sent to the northern border again, away from the center of power.

But Su Mo didn't mention the superior position, but proposed to return to the northern border again. This move was naturally "advance by retreat".

He is so generous and selfless, if the emperor still sends him to the northern border, wouldn't he be too partial and not take this eldest son seriously?

What's more, the prince made a mistake and disappeared. Su Mo has won the support of many veterans, and it is even more impossible to send him to the northern border casually at this moment.

Luo Beiwang and a group of officials from the prince's family all had ugly faces, feeling faintly in a bad mood.

Emperor Ming De looked at Su Mo with a half-smile, and said, "Is that so... well, he is worthy of being my eldest son who cares about the country and the people so much.

Since you want to go to the northern border so much, I will grant you, leave immediately today, return to Zhenbei Army and follow the teachings of Zhenbeihou! "

"ah?"

Su Mo, who was sincere just now, was momentarily stunned, and looked up at "Father" in disbelief.

Not only him, but all civil and military officials in the dynasty were stunned!

Your Majesty, you don't play cards according to common sense! ?

Luo Beiwang was overjoyed, and quickly stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty is really a wise king who loves the people like a son. The prince is missing, and he is willing to send the eldest prince to the northern border. Your ministers and others admire you!"

"Your Majesty!!" Immediately, many officials shouted.

Su Mo's face was cloudy and uncertain, the dumb man ate Coptis chinensis, he couldn't tell what he was suffering from, his scalp exploded!

But he still pretended to be happy and thanked him: "Thank you, Father, for your permission! My son must go to the northern border, and continue to learn from Zhenbeihou with an open mind!"

Emperor Ming De waved his hand, indicating that Su Mo could step back, and then said: "My dear friends, do you have other important matters?"

Seeing that none of the ministers had spoken, Su Gan continued: "You dear friends also know that I was assassinated by an assassin a few years ago, but fortunately the Supreme Emperor took action, so nothing happened.

But because of the assassination, the Supreme Emperor asked me to go with him to the imperial mausoleum and practice in seclusion for a period of time. "

When the officials heard this, they all showed surprise.

"Your Majesty, the imperial court cannot do without you," an old minister hurriedly said.

Emperor Ming De waved his hand, "Hey, how can I disregard the wishes of the Supreme Emperor, and there are indeed signs of a breakthrough in my cultivation recently, and I want to take this opportunity to practice hard with the Supreme Emperor.

As for the affairs of the court, during the period of my retreat, I will hand them over to King Qi, commanded by Chief Tu, who will assist me..."

When the civil and military officials heard this, they finally understood why Tu Yue would go to court.

The affairs of the imperial court were left to King Qi, and the emperor was not at ease enough, and needed Tu Yue, an absolute confidant, to supervise him.

This is tantamount to arranging two auxiliary ministers, one bright and the other dark.

Although the officials felt that it was a bit sudden, no one dared to raise objections, after all, no one had the guts to disobey the Supreme Emperor Su Juexin.

What's more, King Qi is indeed capable, and Tu Yue is secretly in charge, so there can be no trouble.

The one with the ugliest face in the hall was Su Mo.

The emperor would rather hand over the affairs of state to the King of Qi than train his elder son, and even sent him to the frontier. One can imagine his status...

All civil and military officials looked at Su Mo pitifully or mockingly, but Tu Yue looked at Su Mo with some envy, knowing that the eldest prince had left a pit of fire...

After the imperial court, King Qi and Tu Yue followed Emperor Ming De to the imperial study.

"Brother Huang, do you really want to retreat with the Supreme Emperor? Why is it so sudden?" Su Qi wondered, he hadn't heard any news before yesterday.

Su Gan looked solemn, and said: "The Supreme Emperor is worried that the assassin with emperor-level sword intent is the sword god of Megatron Immortal Palace.

So... make preparations in advance, and go to the imperial tomb to practice in seclusion, so as to prevent problems before they happen."

When King Qi heard it, he understood a lot, "Is it really because of the sword god who turned out to be out of the sky... The Supreme Emperor's arrangement is safe, with the protection of the imperial mausoleum, it should be safe.

By the way, brother, that kid Ye Fan hasn’t returned to the Shenlong clan yet, and I haven’t seen him back to Zhenbeihou’s mansion, could it be... he really..."

Emperor Ming De waved his hand, "My son-in-law Ye has already returned, Commander Tu has already investigated this matter, and it has nothing to do with him.

Now is the time, a small son-in-law can't make much waves, so don't worry about him.

King Qi, you will govern the government well for me. I trust you, so I entrust the world to you! "

"Brother Huang, don't worry! This younger brother will definitely do his best!" Qi Wang said with a straight face.

Emperor Ming De nodded with satisfaction, "Retire, I want to discuss something with Master Tu..."

King Qi also knew that the matter of the shadow guard was out of his control, and the shadow guard was there to check and balance him, so naturally he didn't dare to say anything more, so he respectfully retired.

As soon as Su Qi left, "Emperor Ming De" let out a long breath, and sat lazily on the chair.

"This emperor, being in front of him is really tiring...Even if it's easy to memorize these red tapes, it's still tiring and boring..."

A rare smile appeared on the corner of Tu Yue's mouth, "Your Excellency the Sword God's ancestor, the Xuanyuan family, may have been unwilling to stay on the throne for a long time because of this."

Ye Fan nodded, he did understand a little better, and then asked: "There shouldn't be any flaws today, right?

I followed what you said, and learned Emperor Ming De's habits and tone. "

Tu Yue considered it carefully, and said: "Generally speaking, there should be no problem, but there are a few old courtiers who are mature and mature, so I am afraid they will have doubts.

At that time, I may still come to your Majesty... Your Excellency the Sword God to advise or ask..."

Ye Fan said in a deep voice: "I don't have time to waste this time with them, if they have such thoughts, you can settle it for me secretly... no matter what method!"

Tu Yue shuddered, and nodded knowingly, "Yes... Tu knows."

Just then, footsteps came from outside.

An eunuch reported: "Your Majesty, the empress is asking to see you."
