Chapter 422 The Emperor's Promise and Sense of Participation
"If it were another person to deal with Li Chengguo, who does Your Majesty think is the most suitable person in the current government? Without foundation and strength, it would be difficult for Li Chengguo to move."
Ji Wenhao fell into silence after listening to the emperor's uncle's conclusion.
It was not that he was reluctant to give up his official position, but he did not want to give this opportunity to Ji Chengdao to take credit. Therefore, even after reaching this point, he still did not agree.
As for Ji Wenhao's thoughts, Ji Chengdao was very clear about it and continued:
"As long as His Majesty agrees to Jiang Che's promotion to the Antarctic Envoy, I will personally go to the northern border in a few days."
"really?"
Ji Wenhao's eyes lit up instantly.
After the Northern Barbarian envoy was killed, the Jin Sheng Royal Court has now become a serious problem for him. For this reason, he did not hesitate to mobilize a Martial Saint and 50,000 elite forbidden troops to rush to the North for reinforcements.
This is almost the strongest power he can mobilize.
But it's still not safe.
After all, he knew the strength of the Golden Saint Royal Court.
Millions of cavalry, strong men like clouds, and generals like rain, suppressed the grassland and even took over thousands of miles of the Central Plains. Their terrifying strength was extraordinary, and Ji Chengdao was also extraordinary.
As the pillar of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Ji Chengdao's strength was unfathomable, and even he did not know it. However, as the person with the deepest contact, he had great confidence in Ji Chengdao.
If he can take control of the Northland, the serious problems in the grassland will be greatly alleviated.
Moreover, once Ji Chengdao left, he could better sort out the government affairs and even insert nails into the black office.
"I never talk nonsense!"
Ji Chengdao's expression was indifferent, but his words were as heavy as a thousand stones.
"Okay, if that's the case, then according to the emperor's opinion, I will agree to this matter at the court meeting tomorrow." Ji Wenhao said solemnly.
Ji Chengdao nodded slightly and then stood up:
"Your Majesty, please continue to enjoy the flowers and grass. I will take my leave."
After saying that, he turned around and left immediately without giving the emperor a chance to greet him.
Ji Wenhao, on the other hand, personally saw off Ji Chengdao with a smile on his face.
After Ji Chengdao's figure gradually disappeared, the smile on Emperor Yuankang Ji Wenhao's face gradually faded. He glanced at Li Chengzhong who was waiting beside him and ordered:
"Pass on my oral instructions to summon the champion to the palace to see you."
Although he agreed to promote Jiang Che because of Ji Chengdao's concession, he did not want to give up this favor to the other party. He needed to make Jiang Che understand who was promoting him.
Who values him?
Li Chengzhong bowed and said:
"Slave, go right away."
the other side.
The battle between the champion and Queen Xue Baichi also ended completely. The final winner was naturally Jiang Che, but Queen Xue was as sluggish as an eggplant beaten by frost.
His body was twitching and shaking subconsciously.
If Jiang Che had a cigarette in his hand at this moment, he could definitely say something.
He had finished smoking, but the other party was still smoking.
As for the shortcut, Jiang Che couldn't take it after all.
Xue Baichi rejected Jiang Che's unreasonable request. As a queen, she was committed to Jiang Che, and her mouth was tainted. How could she let Jiang Che continue to take shortcuts?
Of course, this was her apparent reason for responding to Jiang Che.
In fact, some of Xue Baichi's thoughts were not revealed.
After she and Jiang Che officially became Taoist friends, they only met twice. If she handed everything to Jiang Che, what would she do in the future?
Gotta keep some sense of mystery.
Yes, Xue Baichi still wants to have another time.
That time at the Prince's Mansion, she was unwilling, but this time, when she devoted herself wholeheartedly, she discovered the beauty of the discussion and felt her whole body trembling.
Every hair on his body is radiating joy.
With such a performance, how could she not understand her own situation?
Naturally, we have to consider it for the future.
What's more, she also has a son, Ji Changsheng, who will inevitably demand Jiang Che in the future. She must have some value in her own right.
Xue Baichi's rejection was beyond Jiang Che's expectation, but it made sense if he thought about it carefully.
After all, it was too fast.
Need to take a good breather.
He is not in a hurry, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.
Sooner or later, I have to take the Queen's shortcut.
"Mother, are you okay?" After a while, Jiang Che saw that Queen Xue still had not returned to normal, and was afraid that something would go wrong, so he immediately asked, after all, Queen Xue's state was really not right at the moment.
His eyes turned white and his body twitched slightly.
He looked like he had a weak breath.
"It's okay." Xue Baiyi looked at the beams with empty eyes, stretched out her hands to hold down her trembling legs, and took a deep breath, feeling that her mind was extremely confused.
What is this state?
Completely see through the state of the mortal world.
After another hundred breaths, Queen Xue, who had recovered a little time, sat upright, but in fact she was still holding back the pain, and the battle directly tore her wounds a lot.
That kind of taste is definitely difficult to understand without personal experience.
"Open the door. It's been too long and it's easy to make people suspicious." Xue Baiyi waved her hands and said weakly.
The two of them had already said what needed to be said during the exchange. There was actually nothing to talk about at this moment, so naturally they had to pretend to have some attitude.
"good."
Jiang Che had no doubts, and removed the restriction with a wave of his hand, opened the door of the hall, and scattered rays of light on the bluestone, while Jiang Che and Queen Xue returned to their normal state.
At least that's how it looks on the surface.
"This slave has met your empress."
Li Chengzhong did not dare to neglect the emperor's oral order, and quickly brought people to the Marquis of Guanjun's mansion. As a result, the first person he saw was not Jiang Che, but the empress sitting at the top, with a graceful and majestic manner.
As a servant, he naturally needed to bow.
"No need to bow, why did Eunuch Li come here?"
Xue Bai'e said seriously.
There was no sign that he had just experienced a battle.
"Reporting to the queen, it was the emperor's oral order to summon the Marquis of Guanjun to the palace for an audience."
Jiang Che and Xue Bai'e were moved at the same time, and looked at each other, revealing an expression that only the two of them understood, and they were somewhat guilty, after all, they had just had an in-depth exchange.
But in the blink of an eye, the emperor's oral order came.
"What is the purpose of summoning the Marquis of Guanjun to the palace?"
Xue Bai'e looked at the other party with forced calmness.
Li Chengzhong bowed humbly:
"This servant does not know much about it, I just know it is a good thing."
Good thing?
That's no problem.
The stone in her heart was completely put down. Xue Bai'e stood up with the help of a chair:
"In this case, the Marquis of Guanjun should get down to business. I am also a little tired. I will go to Sheng'er's house to rest for a while."
"Farewell, Your Majesty."
"Farewell, Your Majesty."
Jiang Che and Li Chengzhong hurriedly bowed and sent Queen Xue out of the house.
Afterwards, Jiang Che did not delay any longer and followed Li Chengzhong directly on the road to the imperial city, but he had some guesses about the good things he talked about.
As expected, it should be Ji Chengdao who made a move, and the emperor chose to compromise.
His idea of choosing to serve Ji Chengdao was right.
On the way, Li Chengzhong gave Jiang Che a look:
"The Marquis of Guanjun is amazing. He actually let the queen come to the door in person."
In fact, Li Chengzhong also knew Xue Bai'e quite well. He knew that this queen had a bad temper and was arrogant. She always looked down on people. Jiang Che could let the queen come to the door in person.
In the capital, it is definitely terrifying.
And he actually has some guesses about this. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be a continuation of the last incident. Jiang Che chose to compromise, and the Queen naturally had to show some sincerity.
This is almost set in stone.
"The Queen came to the door, and Jiang Mou was also very terrified." Jiang Che smiled and then changed the subject. He didn't want to talk more about this matter, let alone reveal any secrets.
"Eunuch Li, what is the good news that His Majesty summoned this time? Can you tell me a little bit?"
Li Chengzhong thought for a moment and lowered his voice:
"First, congratulate the Marquis in advance. It's about promotion."
Jiang Che secretly said, "Sure enough," but still pretended to be puzzled and asked:
"What official position was promoted?"
"Hey, it seems that the Marquis still doesn't regard Li Mou as his own. Shouldn't you know this matter best?" Li Chengzhong looked at Jiang Che's pretended indifference.
The God of Backers personally recommended him and took out the photo stone.
In fact, it is enough to peek into the inside.
The image stone was definitely given by Jiang Che to the King of Backers. How could he not know the inside?
Jiang Che's eyelids drooped, knowing that some things were indeed too obvious, and immediately said:
"In fact, Jiang doesn't know much about this matter, but before the God King."
"Your humble servant Jiang Che, pays homage to Your Majesty!"
In the Imperial Garden, Jiang Che once again met the Green Emperor Ji Wenhao, bowed to him, and did not see any transgression, although he had entered the gap of the other party's ownership at this moment.
But he did not have the ability to tear his face.
Naturally, he did not dare to show anything.
"Stand up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Come, sit down"
"Thank you, Your Majesty"
"I know more about Sheng'er's affairs a few days ago, and I'm sorry for wronging you." As soon as he opened his mouth, Ji Wenhao did not get straight to the point, but talked about what happened a few days ago.
He basically understood the general situation. Jiang Che had some evidence of Ji Changsheng's crimes, but he finally compromised in the hands of the Queen, and he must have suffered some grievances.
After all, Jiang Che is a minister, and Xue Bai'e is the queen.
He will inevitably be at a disadvantage.
Although he wished that Jiang Che could make a big fuss, he couldn't say that now.
Jiang Che was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
He was wronged?
How could he not know?
It was clear that he had severely whipped the queen and taught her with the Eighteen Styles of Archer, so how could he be wronged in the opposite way?
Although Jiang Che was puzzled, he was mature after all, and quickly understood what Ji Wenhao had misunderstood, and hurriedly said:
"I dare not talk about any grievances, this is what I should do."
Ji Wenhao was very satisfied with this attitude, and felt that Jiang Che understood the duties of a minister.
In front of the queen, you should give in.
This is indeed the duty of a minister.
Jiang Che's eyes immediately became more and more satisfied, but it was a pity that although the other party had expressed his loyalty, he was still inclined to Ji Chengdao in the final analysis, otherwise he would not let the other party mention the matter of seeking an official position.
Thinking so, Ji Wenhao still encouraged:
"You are following my order. If there is a similar incident in the future, no one can give face, even the queen cannot interfere in the affairs of the court."
"Yes, I understand."
Ji Wenhao smiled faintly and glanced at Li Chengzhong beside him. The other party immediately understood and waved his hand. Two young palace maids came to the side with their heads down, holding a sandalwood tray in their hands.
On the tray, there were two bowls of hot porridge.
"Come, the champion, please try my royal meal. This is specially prepared for you. It is a nourishing porridge made with eighteen kinds of elixirs. It is a great tonic for warriors.
You have been tired from investigating the case these days. Please replenish your body. "
Ji Wenhao said with a smile while wiping his hands with a brocade handkerchief.
Dining with the emperor is definitely a great honor for the courtiers. Although it will not make Jiang Che return to his heart, it can still make him feel flattered.
And Ji Wenhao was right as he expected.
Jiang Che was really flattered when he looked at the steaming porridge.
He really didn't expect that Ji Wenhao would be so considerate.
He had just exerted strength on the queen's body, so he asked her to replenish her body.
What kind of behavior is this?
Does the emperor also feel involved?
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Jiang Che was very moved and bowed his hands.
He secretly made a decision in his heart that the next time he communicates with Empress Xue, he will try his best. In this way, the emperor's high hopes for him will not be in vain.
"Hehehe, come and taste how it tastes."
Ji Wenhao waved his hand, signaling Jiang Che to take action.
After a while.
Most of the bowl of nourishing porridge became Jiang Che's nourishment, nourishing his whole body with warmth, especially his Yuanying, which had grown slightly, and he was very satisfied with it.
If he could taste a bowl of nourishing porridge every day, even if he didn't offer sacrifices, he would probably be able to improve his cultivation level in a few years.
"I'm old, but a young and vigorous young man like you can refine the spiritual things in the porridge." Ji Wenhao sighed as there was still more than half of the bowl left in the bowl.
He couldn't absorb these spiritual things at all, he could only taste them.
"Your Majesty will flourish in the Spring and Autumn Period and will surely last forever."
Jiang Che immediately complimented.
"I don't expect to last forever, but I do hope that the foundation passed down by our ancestors can last forever. Jiang Che, you are a young man I am optimistic about, and you will be a pillar of the imperial court in the future.
The emperor's uncle recommended you to me to become the Antarctic Divine Envoy and also serve as Yuezhou Prefectural Shepherd, in order to compete with Li Chengguo. I have actually had this intention for a long time, but I saw that you were too young before, so I thought of keeping you by my side for polishing.
But now the DPRK is suffering from internal and external troubles, and there is no one else around me who can take on this important task. If you give me an accurate answer, can Li Chengguo be solved? "
Ji Wenhao changed his voice and stared at Jiang Che with burning eyes.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will do my best to resolve the troubles in southern Xinjiang for Your Majesty and repay Your Majesty's kindness." Jiang Che quickly stood up and saluted, with a solemn expression on his face.
But a thought came to mind.
If he was left in the capital to polish his skills, he estimated that if he didn't take any protection, the queen, the queen, and her children would be born.
"Okay, then I will give you this opportunity. If you can really deal with Li Chengguo, I will grant you the title of Nanhou, and you may not be able to be crowned king in the future." Ji Wenhao said solemnly.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, I am willing to die for you!"
