The First Tyrant of Daxia

Qin Yun did not dislike this old man. He was just a typical pedantic scholar with a straightforward temper and a stubborn mind.

But Wei Zheng was not critical of individuals and was very honest.

"If we choose one, can we still call him the top martial arts scholar? What I want is a top martial arts scholar with real skills and knowledge, who has won through his abilities!"

Wei Zheng hunched his back, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, how about launching a military examination and letting the sons of the royal family and nobles compete?"

"I know many young talents who are descendants of generals and are good at commanding troops and fighting."

Qin Yun frowned. Getting this old man to agree to promote a poor family member might be more painful than killing him.

Wang Wei and other ministers watched the two men talking, and no one interrupted.

With a big shot like Wei Zheng leading the way, they were happy to watch the fun.

Qin Yun knew the difficulty of this matter, so he chose to take a step back and pretended to be unhappy and said: "Then let's do this. The martial arts examination is open to all those who do not have an official position, whether they are from humble backgrounds or royal relatives and nobles.

"If you still don't agree to this, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Hearing this, Wei Zheng frowned and hesitated, but did not object immediately.

But the Ministry of Justice, the City Defense Commander-in-Chief and other relevant ministers could no longer sit still.

"Your Majesty, I think it's okay!"

"Your Majesty, I second your proposal. Only by opening it to everyone can we better select talents."

"I second the proposal!"

All the ministers agreed that locusts would pass through the border.

Qin Yun snorted in his heart. These guys agreed to this because they were not afraid of being punished by him for the assassination.

Lin Changshu's eyes flashed, and after a brief eye contact with Wang Wei, he stood up and spoke slowly.

"Your Majesty, since the ministers have no objection to this matter, I think we can put the military examination on the agenda as soon as possible to ensure the safety of the palace and your majesty."

"As for the military examination, preparations need to be made. I, your humble servant, would like to be in charge of the examination."

"You?" Qin Yun glanced at him sideways, feeling very unhappy. You are just a puppet prime minister, a guy who obeys the powerful ministers. I will remove you sooner or later!

"The matter of the military examination will naturally be the responsibility of the military commander. Lord Lin, you are usually very tired, so you should choose someone else who is capable and virtuous for this matter."

He said this in a tone that did not allow for negotiation.

"The Ministry of War is in charge of the military examination. I will supervise it personally. Anyone who dares to cheat for personal gain will have his property confiscated and his clan exterminated!"

The Minister of War Qi Yong had a strange look on his face. How could this hot potato be thrown into his hands?

But seeing this situation, we have to continue.

"My lord, I will fulfill my mission!"

After all the ministers discussed it, they all said, "Your Majesty, your Majesty's order!"

Next, Qin Yun briefly talked about corvée, taxes, and government affairs in various places, and then withdrew from the court.

This time, he won!

Although Wang Wei's face was calm, he was not in a good mood.

The original plan was completely ruined, Concubine Xiao Shu did not die, and the emperor did not panic. In the end, Qin Yun even seized the opportunity and successfully got the ministers to agree to the martial arts examination.

Moreover, most of the spies who had served as pawns in the palace for many years were eliminated in an instant!

He was filled with hatred, and cursed the Ninth Prince's men in his heart: "Waste, all waste, paying such a high price but failing to kill Concubine Xiao Shu."

Walking out of Xuanwu Gate, Wang Wei looked back and gazed at the supreme Tai Chi Hall.

His eyes were gloomy: "Your Majesty, I underestimated you."

"However, winning one piece does not mean winning the whole game. Let's wait and see!"

……

After Qin Yun left the court, he rushed to the Yangxin Palace.

Pushing open the vermilion door, a scent of sandalwood wafts in.

Wang Min was actually there in front of Concubine Xiao Shufei's bed!

Seeing Qin Yun suddenly come in, Wang Min showed a beautiful smile, then bowed and said, "Your Majesty."

Qin Yun's eyes stayed on the soup bowl in her hand, wondering if she would be so kind to take care of Concubine Xiao Shu?

Since the assassination, Qin Yun hated Wang Min more and more. He even suspected that Wang Min had colluded with outsiders and joined forces with the Wang family to send the killer.

After all, Concubine Xiao Shufei died, and the biggest beneficiaries were Wang Min and the Wang family.

Wang Min saw that he had a bad attitude, and immediately burst into tears, aggrieved, "Your Majesty, this time I came here not only to see Sister Shufei, but also to apologize to her for what happened before."

"I sincerely repent."

Concubine Xiao Shu was lying on the bed. She looked at Qin Yun and explained, "Brother Yun, I asked the Imperial Concubine to come in. She brought a lot of supplements for me."

Brother Yun? Wang Min's beautiful eyes flickered. Are they so close?

"Okay, I'll take care of this place. Concubine Wang, you can go first." Qin Yun said lightly and sat down next to Concubine Xiao Shufei.

Hearing the order to expel her, Wang Min's pretty face changed color again and again. She was normal a few days ago, but why is she so cold now?

Could it be that the assassination had made him suspicious?

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will take my leave first and come to see Sister Shufei later."

She nodded in reply, very obediently, and then left.

Concubine Xiao Shufei said something polite in a formal manner and watched her leave.

After being treated with various precious medicinal herbs, her face had regained its color, and she looked very pure and beautiful. She was in a particularly good mood, and she felt that His Majesty treated her better than Concubine Wang.

"Xiang'er, when did you become so close to her?"

Qin Yun frowned, not understanding. According to common sense, she should hate Wang Min to death since she had been suppressed by her in the past.

Concubine Xiao Shu showed a gentle smile and said softly: "I will not cause trouble to Brother Yun. Didn't you say that? Harmony in the harem is the best."

Qin Yun smiled and touched her hair.

Then he looked at Ah Yue who was standing beside him and said, "Ah Yue, check everything Wang Min brought to see if there is any poison!"

"Yes!"

A Yue nodded.

She was the person sent by Qin Yun to protect Concubine Xiao Shufei. Among the 17 shadow guards, she was the only girl, so she was suitable.

Concubine Xiao Shu's beautiful eyes flickered as she looked at Qin Yun without saying a word.

The changes in Qin Yun during this period made her feel like she was in a dream, and she was deeply trapped in the feeling of being favored.

The two of them then chatted casually, as plainly and warmly as a country couple.

The next afternoon, the heat rose slightly.

The weather in July is a bit hot and humid.

Qin Yun sat in the imperial study, handling government affairs, studying while doing so, and put in a lot of effort.

Especially in the two matters of disaster relief and martial arts examination. As a time traveler, he has a lot of forward-looking thinking and vision, so he has many unique advantages.

Two palace maids fanned him on both sides, and Yan'er came forward with a bowl of iced plum soup.

She whispered, "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu asked me to bring you some plum soup, and she also told you not to forget to rest while handling official business."

Qin Yun glanced at the beautiful Yan'er and felt a little restless. It might be that the positive energy of Yuyang was regulating his body and making him more energetic.

He picked up the plum soup and drank it all in one gulp.

It was icy cool, and it cooled down all the heat in his body.

"How is Concubine Shu? Go back and tell her that I will visit her later."

Yan'er said, "Your Majesty, the queen is fine, the imperial physician is watching over her."

Having said that, she did not leave.

"Hmm? Anything else?" Qin Yun raised his eyebrows.
