Fu Huang: Husband, here is a ginseng
Chapter 284 Confessing the King
"The Emperor has arrived!"
Eunuch Zhang spoke up at the right time to help everyone out and ease the embarrassment.
The Emperor walked into the court, followed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The Emperor sat on the dragon throne and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walked down the hall.
"If you have something to do, start the show, if nothing happens, leave the court!"
After the emperor sat down, Eunuch Zhang repeated his daily opening remarks loudly.
"I have something to report!"
The Minister of Rites stood up and spoke.
"Play!"
The emperor said.
"The Prime Minister of Tatar has repeatedly asked me when their Ninth Princess will choose a husband, so that they can return to report to their Emperor as soon as possible."
The Minister of Rites told the Tatar Prime Minister about how he had been nagging him every day for the past two days.
The people who were to marry the princess were accommodated in the post house and were received by the Ministry of Rites and the Honglu Temple.
Foreign ministers cannot enter the palace without the emperor's summons, and the prime minister can only have the Ministry of Rites.
"When their compensation arrives, I will find a husband for the Ninth Princess. I will personally grant the marriage then!"
The emperor said to the Ministry of Rites.
The prince had already told him about the marriage, the purpose of the Ninth Princess' marriage was the Ten Crossbows and the Grenade. He also said that Princess Xiangyun had helped the Ninth Princess find a candidate, the Heir of Anyang Marquis.
He didn't understand at first, but after listening to the prince's explanation, he understood. He thought Princess Xiangyun was very smart to come up with this plan to kill two birds with one stone.
When Marquis Anyang and his nine clans are executed, we can solve the problem together with the Ninth Princess.
"Yes, I obey your order!"
After the Minister of Rites finished speaking, he stood back.
After waiting for a while and seeing no minister coming out to speak, the emperor spoke.
"Lord Murong has defeated the Tatars this time and ensured the safety of the people at the border. I will begin to reward you according to your merits."
"The brave cavalry general, loyal and courageous, galloped on the battlefield, was invincible, and defeated the Tatars. I will make him the King of Zhenbei, reward him with ten thousand taels of gold, ten thousand taels of silver, ten thousand pieces of silk and satin, two manors, two courtyards, five shops, a Zhenbei Palace, and the fiefdom of Yongzhou."
"General of the Cavalry, you are brave and resourceful, heroic and capable, and you have served the country with all your heart and soul. I will give you the title of General of the Cavalry, and let you guard the border and protect Daliang. I will reward you with a thousand taels of gold, a thousand taels of silver, a thousand pieces of silk and satin, a farm, a yard, two shops, and a general's mansion."
"General Zhengbei......"
...............
The emperor gave rewards to the ten generals who returned to the palace for honors.
"Thank you so much, Lord!"
Murong Yuanbo led them to thank the emperor for his gift.
The emperor named Murong Yuan the King of Zhenbei. The ministers below were whispering to each other, all with shocked expressions on their faces.
What a huge fortune this is!
There has never been a precedent since the establishment of Daliang. This is a prince of a different surname, and his power is almost the same as that of a prince.
The second and third princes began to plot their own plans, trying to win over the King of Zhenbei to their advantage.
The ministers also had their own plans. They wanted to marry their daughters to the second son as his wife, or to the crown prince as his concubine. Some also wanted to take advantage of Princess Xiangyun and marry her to their son.
"My dear ministers, you all know that the key to winning this battle is the ten-link crossbow, the hand grenade, and the military book. These were donated by Princess Xiangyun. She is so righteous for Daliang and is a role model for girls in the boudoir. In addition, her intelligence and wisdom are beyond the reach of many of us men. Therefore, I like her very much and want to adopt her as my goddaughter. Confer the title of Princess Xiangyun! I will issue an edict to confer the title tomorrow!"
The emperor did not wait for the ministers to come back to their senses from the King of Zhenbei. He conferred the title of Princess Xiangyun as a princess, which turned the court upside down. This time, the ministers were not whispering, but talking to each other.
"Your Majesty, Princess Xiangyun has presented a divine weapon. Although she should be rewarded, she does not need to be made a princess. Since ancient times, royal bloodlines cannot be mixed."
The Imperial Censor was the first to object.
Although he knew that Princess Xiangyun was on the side of the Crown Prince, the royal bloodline was more important.
It was his duty to come out and oppose it, as the princess was going to join the Royal Jade Butterfly.
"I second the motion! I think the Imperial Censor is right. The royal bloodline cannot be bullied. Your Majesty can give her a little reward. I believe the princess will understand."
The Minister of Rites also opposed it.
"I second the proposal!"
"I second the proposal!"
Many ministers came out to oppose it.
Although they felt that Princess Xiangyun was worthy of admiration, the emperor had already conferred the title of princess on her, which was already the greatest favor, and it was impossible to confer a higher title on her.
Princesses are only available to members of the royal family. How could she, a person from an outsider, be a princess?
"How dare you! Do you want to teach me how to do things? Do you want me to give the throne to you and let you be the emperor?"
The emperor said angrily.
He did not ask for their opinions. When he told them his decision, they came out one by one to oppose it. Who gave them the courage?
"We dare not! We are terrified!"
All the civil and military officials knelt down in fear, trembling all over.
"I think you are very brave. You all jump out to oppose my decisions one by one."
The emperor was still furious, and the ministers were so scared that they dared not speak.
"Do you have any other opinions?"
After the emperor calmed down his anger, he asked the frightened ministers below.
"I have no objection!"
This time, the ministers were very sensible and did not dare to bring bad luck again, for fear that the emperor would be furious and would confiscate their property and exterminate their clans.
After all, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. No one knows when the tiger will bite you.
"Since you have no objection, it is decided. I will issue an imperial decree tomorrow. By the way, if you have no objection, is this voluntary or forced by me?"
The emperor looked at the ministers who were trembling with fear below, his heart filled with contempt. They had the guts to oppose his decision, which was really presumptuous of them.
"We volunteered, Your Majesty is wise!"
The ministers were even more frightened and flattered.
"If you have something to say, please report it. If not, please leave the court!"
The emperor winked at eunuch Zhang, who spoke immediately.
"Your servants have nothing to report!"
The ministers were frightened and spoke quickly.
Who would dare to say that there was something going on at this time? Everyone was hoping that the emperor would dismiss the court immediately so that they could leave the Shura Field as soon as possible.
"Retreat!"
When Eunuch Zhang heard that there was nothing to report, he spoke immediately.
"Congratulations to your Majesty!"
As soon as the emperor left the throne, the ministers respectfully saw him off.
Only after the emperor left did the ministers dare to stand up.
After getting up, many ministers hurriedly wiped the sweat off their face with their sleeves. They were frightened to death by the emperor's rage just now, and they broke out in cold sweats.
"Congratulations, King Zhenbei! Congratulations, King Zhenbei!"
"King Zhenbei, you must treat us officials to a meal to celebrate."
"That's right, you are named the King of Zhenbei, and your daughter is named the princess. You are so rich, you must treat us to a feast."
"That's right. This is such great luck that we are envious. You must take care of me in the future."
"Yes, I also want to share in your luck!"
The ministers began to congratulate Murong Yuanbo.
Murong Yuanbo smiled and nodded to everyone as a response.
Only Marquis Zhongyong was unhappy. He was unhappy that a mere military man like him was favored by the emperor and was highly praised by the ministers here.
"Tsk, isn't it because of his daughter that he was made a prince? What's the difference between this and selling a daughter?"
Marquis Zhongyong sneered in a sarcastic tone.
The ministers sneered in their hearts, he relies on his daughter, you rely on your sister. Besides, although he is a warrior, he is also capable, you are a waste.
"How dare you! I was appointed prince by the Emperor himself. Do you have any objection to the Emperor's wisdom and bravery?"
Murong Yuanbo was furious, and Marquis Zhongyong was so frightened that he shrank his neck and dared not make a sound.
"King of Zhenbei, that is not what the loyal and brave marquis meant. Please calm down. I will ask him to apologize to you."
The second prince quickly came out to smooth things over.
The King of Zhenbei is still in favor and cannot be offended. In addition, there is Princess Xiangyun, who cannot be taken into the palace now, but can be used for personal use.
He really wanted to beat up this uncle who was always causing trouble but could not do anything helpful.
"Loyal and Brave Marquis, why don't you apologize to the King of Zhen?"
Marquis Zhongyong wanted to say no, but the Second Prince glared at him and he was so scared that he obediently apologized to Murong Yuanbo.
"Your Excellency is magnanimous. Please forgive my rude words."
Marquis Zhongyong said to Murong Yuanbo.
"If you want to apologize, you should look like you're apologizing. Speak louder. I can't hear you!"
Murong Yuanbo said.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
This time, Marquis Zhongyong had no choice but to speak loudly.
"For the sake of the Second Prince, I will not argue with you!"
After Murong Yuanbo finished speaking, he left the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Marquis Zhongyong glared viciously at Murong Yuanbo who was walking away, thinking in his heart: He must repay today's humiliation and hatred tenfold.
