Chapter 130: Delegation

Three months later.

Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The atmosphere in the hall was depressing and no one dared to make a sound. They also didn't understand why some people would risk being beheaded to support the Eighth Master who was also participating in the fight for the throne.

Several ministers who were originally on the side of the Eighth Master were kneeling in the center of the hall. Among them, Alinga had a dignified look on his face:

"Your Majesty, the late emperor has been gone for less than half a year, and you are already killing your brothers. If the late emperor knew about this, I wonder how disappointed he would be."

Yinzhen exuded a cold aura and there was a flash of murderous intent in his eyes. These people still couldn't see the situation clearly and were speaking for the rebels.

Since he ascended the throne, he conferred titles on most of his brothers who remained neutral. The only reason he delayed conferring titles on Yinsi and Yinlu was because they led troops in a rebellion before the emperor's death.

At this time, Longkodo, because of his special merits and the fact that his daughter was a noble concubine, inherited the title of first-class duke, and worked with the Grand Secretary Ma Qi in general affairs, and was granted the position of Minister of Personnel.

Seeing Yinzhen on the throne with a gloomy face, he stepped out:

"Aling, when the late emperor was ill, the Eighth Master led his troops to surround the Qianqing Palace with the intention of rebellion! Even if he died, it would not be surprising. Moreover, the emperor has a good reputation. Just ordering him to stay in the palace and not leave is already a leniency!"

Alinga's throat choked. Everyone knew that the Eighth Master was plotting a rebellion, but since he had joined the Eighth Master, they had already been tied to the same rope and could not be separated!

He bowed once more and said with full energy:

"Your Majesty, the Eighth Master is quite capable. The court is in need of talents right now. You should make use of your brothers, so as not to make people think that Your Majesty is mean and ungrateful!"

"presumptuous!"

Yinzhen slammed the dragon table, and the ministers below knelt down immediately. What Alinga said just now was simply an insult to the emperor.

Even though Yinzhen was like this, Alinga and the others still criticized the Eighth Prince.

At this moment, another person came out of the hall. He had blond hair and blue eyes, and was not dressed in Qing Dynasty clothing.

There was no expression on his face. He ignored all the ministers in the hall, walked step by step to Yinzhen, placed one hand on his left chest and bowed slightly.

"Your Majesty, my master knows that you are in trouble, so he ordered me to come and give you a solution."

There was no expression on Yinzhen's handsome face, but what he was thinking in his heart was that Jinxiu Pavilion was too powerful after all, and he had to endure it.

"Oh? Since you are the master of Jinxiu Pavilion, I will listen attentively."

Yinzhen sat on the dragon throne and leaned back, the aura of a superior was evident all over his body. In just half a year, he had already experienced the power of authority, so naturally he had the aura of a high position and power.

There was a faint red light flashing in No. 1's blue eyes, and his voice was at the junction of mechanical and human voice, indescribably strange.

"Your Majesty, each of your brothers is one in a hundred. Why not give them a chance to expand your territory?"

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall. Many ministers were dismissive of this, and some even whispered to their colleagues and mocked:

"Expanding the territory? Jinxiu Pavilion can do business, but it's too simple here!"

The ministers who were discussing with him naturally echoed in a low voice: "That's right, doesn't he think that expanding territory is as easy as a yellow-haired child playing in the mud?"

Yinzhen, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was silent for a moment. For a moment, he felt that the owner of Jinxiu Pavilion was too frivolous, but then he thought of the magical machine that No. 1 used to rescue him...

"Could you elaborate on this?"

Number One was neither humble nor arrogant. To him, he could hear those people even if they spoke in a low voice, but he didn't care.

"Your Majesty, there are many islands outside the Bohai Sea of ​​the Qing Dynasty. Among them is a very large land. If anyone knows about it, they should also know that there are many countries there."

Alinga was a little disappointed. How could those barbaric lands be worthy of them crossing over to explore and develop?

"Your Majesty, no, those are all barbarians..."

"Your Majesty, instead of convicting the Eighth Master, why not let him go to Magnesium Continent to pursue his ambitions? This will not only not leave a bad reputation for Your Majesty, but also allow the Eighth Master to make meritorious contributions while serving his sentence, thus clearing himself of the charge of treason!"

What Number One said was naturally what Tong Nuanyan meant. Let the Eighth Master go there to test the waters first. Once things are settled, her children will be almost grown up.

There are so many children, but there is only one throne. If we don't expand more territories, how will the throne be divided?

Yinzhen looked at No. 1 who was confident, and at Alinga who was furious as if he had suffered a great humiliation, and he felt inexplicably happy.

"Approved! The Eighth Prince Yinsi and the Ninth Prince Yinlu will each lead 2,000 soldiers to Meizhou to expand the territory for the Qing Dynasty!"

"If the two of you can really open up a piece of Qing territory in Meizhou, Yinsi will be named Prince Lian and Yinlu will be named Prince Chengyan!"

Seeing Yinzhen's decree coming down, the ministers of the Eighth Prince's party looked dejected, having no idea that this was the beginning of such a great achievement.

At this moment, some far-sighted ministers also reacted. They had also heard of the continent of Magnesium State. If the Eighth Master really succeeded, would he still submit to them?

Zhang Tingyu was shocked and fell to his knees. "Your Majesty, if the Eighth Master and his men really succeed, then... will it bring harm to the Qing Dynasty?"

Yinzhen had thought about this consequence, but he did not think that the Eighth Prince would be someone who would betray his ancestors and endanger the Qing Dynasty.

What's more, the situation in Meizhou is unclear. It will probably take more than ten years for Yinsi to be truly stable. Why should he not dare to do anything because of the threat in more than ten years?

"That's fine. If Magnesium State can expand its territory, then we can send people to explore other places."

He would be happy just thinking about releasing a group of brothers whom he disliked but could not deal with from the Qing Dynasty. The first one to be affected would be the former Crown Prince Yinreng, whom he had long disliked and who coveted his concubine.

"My second brother, Yinreng, will be conferred the title of Prince Li. The Imperial Hospital will do its best to treat my second brother. After he is fully established, Prince Li Yinreng will lead 3,000 soldiers to the northern countries such as Tsarist Russia to make some contributions to the Qing Dynasty!"

"Brother Yinzhen, you will be released from confinement and promoted to Prince Zhi. After you recover, lead 3,000 soldiers to the southwest, to the territory of Kunlun Slaves, and expand the territory as well!"

All the ministers praised him endlessly. Even if they didn't think so in their hearts, they suppressed their thoughts and dared not say a word:

"Your Majesty is wise! This time we will be able to more than double the territory of the Qing Dynasty!"

When the imprisoned Yinreng and Yinzhi found out, they knew that this was their next chance to turn things around. Even though they were not afraid of lifelong imprisonment, they could not ignore their wives and sons.

What's more, they were so ambitious that they were extremely concerned about this matter. They actively prepared all the information and read books that recorded the distant land overnight.

At the same time, the brothers Yinsi and Yin'er were also very excited. They had been narrow-minded in the past. There was only one throne in the Qing Dynasty, but other places had vast territories. Why not open up another world?

"My brother, I suddenly feel that the fourth brother is barely qualified to be the emperor. We still have to fight for the throne."

Seeing Yin'er unable to hide his admiration but feeling awkward for the sake of face, Yinsi's gentle and handsome face broke into a smile.

"Yes, we misunderstood Fourth Brother before. We didn't expect him to be so generous."

Even if they were only given a few thousand soldiers, and they were not even elite, this arrangement was still the best compared to rebelling and being imprisoned.
