Chapter 326: Extra 4: The Controversy of the Meng Family Army

Meng Kexin and his party bid farewell to the people in the disaster area and returned to Glory City. Because the Meng family army had made great contributions in treating the people in the disaster area, Ye Muyuan gave them generous rewards, and the General of the Nation was given to Meng Kehan.

He issued an imperial decree to confer a title on Meng Weiyuan: By the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims:

I heard that the Meng family army has made great contributions in rescuing the people in the disaster area, so I specially grant them generous rewards to commend their achievements.

Meng Kexin, despite being the queen, cared about the people and led the Meng family army deep into the disaster area. She worked tirelessly to save the wounded and rescue the dying. Her achievements were remarkable, and she was rewarded with a thousand taels of gold and a hundred pieces of silk.

Qin Wanying was gentle and virtuous, with a dignified character and superb medical skills. She assisted the Meng family army in treating the people in the disaster area with all her heart and effort, and was awarded the title of first-rank lady and given 500 taels of gold and 50 pieces of silk.

Meng Weiyuan, the General Zhenyuan, was a good military commander, loyal to the emperor and patriotic. He led the Meng family army to fight bravely against disasters in the disaster area and protect the safety of the people. His contributions were indispensable, and he was promoted to the title of "Duke of Weiguo" and was rewarded with a thousand taels of gold and a hundred pieces of silk.

I hope the Meng family army will continue to work hard, share my worries, and seek benefits for the people.

Admire this!

All the Meng family soldiers who followed Meng Weiyuan were rewarded, especially Liu Chenyi and the Yu brothers, who were all promoted to major generals.

After the Meng family army received the order and expressed their gratitude, Meng Weiyuan led everyone back to the palace. Along the way, the people gathered on both sides of the road to express their gratitude and respect to the Meng family army.

Back at the Meng Mansion, Meng Kexin distributed the rewards to everyone. Liu Chenyi and the Yu brothers began training new recruits, hoping to cultivate more outstanding soldiers to serve the country.

At the same time, some officials in the court were worried about the rise of the Meng family army, fearing that their power was too great.

That morning, during the court session, there was a debate about the Meng family's excessive power.

"The Meng family army has made many military achievements and has now become one of the most powerful armies in our dynasty. Its influence cannot be underestimated." said the Minister of War.

"Yes, Meng Weiyuan commands a large army. If he has any second thoughts, the consequences will be disastrous," another minister echoed.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the Meng family army should be restricted to prevent its power from becoming too great and threatening the security of the court," suggested a minister.

"Your Majesty, the Meng family army is loyal and has made great contributions to the country. They should not be restricted." The Minister of War retorted.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the Meng family army should be commended and rewarded to encourage them to continue serving the country." said the Minister of Justice.

"Your Majesty, the rise of the Meng family army is unstoppable. We should follow the trend, strengthen cooperation with the Meng family army, and work together for the prosperity and strength of the country." said a minister.

In the court, the ministers expressed their opinions and argued endlessly. Ye Muyuan sat on the dragon throne, listening quietly to the ministers' arguments, feeling very angry.

As someone who knew him, he knew exactly how much his Xin'er, Uncle Meng, had sacrificed to uphold the glorious dynasty.

What's more, my father wanted Uncle Meng to be the emperor at that time, but he refused. What is there to worry about?

Ye Muyuan suddenly stood up and shouted, "Enough! Stop arguing! The Meng family army is a hero of our dynasty. They fought bravely for our country and made great achievements. I will not allow anyone to slander them!"

Ye Muyuan's voice echoed in the court. The ministers were intimidated by the emperor's aura and dared not speak anymore.

Ye Muyuan continued, "Meng Weiyuan is my loyal minister. He is devoted to me and has never had second thoughts. I trust him, and I also trust the Meng Family Army. I will not restrict the Meng Family Army. On the contrary, I will commend and reward them to encourage them to continue serving the country."

The emperor's words surprised the ministers. They did not expect the emperor to defend Meng Weiyuan and the Meng family army so much.

Meng Weiyuan was very pleased when he learned of the emperor's decision.

He is worthy of being Cheng An’s son!

He is worthy of being the man her daughter likes!

He made up his mind that he must work harder to serve the country in order to live up to the emperor's trust and expectations.

Meng Kexin heard about the previous dynasty's affairs and looked at Ye Muyuan and said, "Ayuan, I know about the previous dynasty's arguments. If you are worried, let them return to their hometowns."

Ye Muyuan said angrily, "Xin'er, are you testing me? If so, it hurts me a little. I have absolute trust in you and Uncle Meng, and I won't allow the court officials to instigate me and do anything to them."

"I didn't mean to test you, A'yuan." Meng Kexin sighed softly, "I'm just worried that you'll be troubled by the previous dynasty's disputes. I know you trust me and my father, but the ministers in the court may not feel the same way. Perhaps letting the Meng family army disarm and return home can avoid some unnecessary trouble."

Ye Muyuan held Meng Kexin's hand. "I understand your concerns, but the Meng Family Army is our dynasty's elite division. They exist to protect the country and its people. Demobilizing them would not only be disrespectful to them, but would also deprive the country of a powerful force. I will find a way to resolve the previous dynasty's dispute and make the ministers realize the importance of the Meng Family Army."

Meng Kexin nodded and said, "It's not that I'm involved in government affairs. Most of the people in the court are my uncles and aunts. They are definitely loyal to the Glory Dynasty. You should carefully investigate those dissenting voices. Perhaps someone is manipulating them behind the scenes."

Ye Muyuan's heart skipped a beat. He had never thought of this.

"Xin'er, your words really reminded me. It seems I have to conduct a secret investigation on those people."

In the following time, Ye Muyuan decided to conduct an in-depth investigation. He used his intelligence network to start collecting evidence.

After some effort, Ye Muyuan discovered some clues. It turned out that the opposition to the Meng family army mainly came from some former officials of the previous dynasty. They were dissatisfied with the establishment of the Rongyao Dynasty and tried to achieve their own goals by weakening the Meng family army.

This made Ye Muyuan very angry. He found Meng Kexin and said angrily, "Xin'er, give me some truth potion and I will find out who is behind these people."

Meng Kexin smiled and took out some mantra potions and said, "If you give this task to Lei Can and the others, you will definitely get unexpected rewards."

Ye Muyuan listened to Meng Kexin's advice and gave the task to Lei Can.

Lei Can obeyed the order and sneaked into an official's mansion on a dark and windy night, brought him back to the palace, and left him at Ye Muyuan's feet. The official was stunned for a moment.

Lei Can took this opportunity to force the mantra potion down his throat.

Ye Muyuan said coldly, "Feng Yunnan, tell me, who told you to criticize the Meng family army in the court?"

When Feng Yunnan heard Ye Muyuan's voice, he couldn't help but shudder and blurted out, "It's the Third Prince's mother's family."
