The wife is the king of the palace

Jin Qi learned from the eunuch that Lin Xu had been expelled from the palace, and his tense nerves finally relaxed. He who had been guarding the lake all the time looked at the listless dragon carp in the water, feeling very distressed.

The distressed feeling didn't go away until the next morning morning. Before morning morning, he went to the lake to have a look. He was relieved when he saw that the fish in the water finally regained some energy.

It was just dawn, and the mist in the early summer morning was misty. When the palace gate was opened and looked out from the palace, all eyes could see was a foggy white.

The DPRK and China have been discussing and discussing the delivery of weapons for the past few days. This matter seems simple but in fact it is not. They have no instant communication with the border camps. Now all they do can only be contacted by the letter sent the day before yesterday. , the difficulty of which is self-evident.

Therefore, the people have been arguing endlessly, in order to improve this plan, and also put forward the "Second Plan" for many worried people in the court.

The weapons delivery plan is already being implemented, but some people also ask what should happen if the delivery fails?Therefore, many people suggested that the nearby local troops should be dispatched in advance, just in case.

"There is still time now. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid it will be too late. I would like to ask the emperor to issue an order as soon as possible." An official from one of the three provinces said.

As soon as his words fell, many people immediately responded, hoping that Jin Qi could issue an order to dispatch troops as soon as possible.

"Xu Lan, what do you think?" Jin Qi talked to Xu Lan, but his eyes frequently glanced at the position beside Xu Lan.

All the officials were divided into several rows and stood in the court hall, but the head position on the left was vacant, and the person who should have stood there was nowhere to be seen.

Lin Xu has never been absent from the court for so many years as an official, not to mention absent, he has never even been late, but why is he absent now without saying a word?

Could it be that he was sick?But if someone from the prime minister's mansion is sick, he will definitely come to report his leave. Could it be that something else happened?

Jin Qi frowned, he had been absent-minded all along.

"Mobilizing troops and generals is not as simple as an imperial decree. The urgent mobilization of the garrison will definitely waste people and money. I think we should take another look." Xu Lan said.

There is no local army stationed near the border, and the nearest local army is also some distance away. It takes at least ten days to go there.

Marching in a hurry, requisitioning more farmland for the road, even if you restrain yourself along the way, you will damage a lot of farmland. If you march slowly on the road, it will take at least [-] days in the past, so there is no need to go again.

"Master Shang Shu is wrong. If there is any further delay, if the situation develops in the worst direction, it will be too late to dispatch troops and generals." The people from the three provinces retorted.

"Hasn't the situation developed into that?" Xu Lan smiled.

The person who requested the transfer of troops, Xu Lan, is familiar with them. It is difficult for them to be unfamiliar with the same dynasty for so many years, but that person has always been an advocate and pro-people faction. It is a fall that turns life into a positive one.

"Could it be that we really have to wait until the enemy army invades our capital before Master Shang Shu thinks it's important?"

"That's not what I mean. It's just that if something goes wrong, there's still time to deploy troops. Besides, there's still General Ghost Face at the frontier."

There is a famous general in Dayu, who wears a ghost mask. People don't know his age, but they only know that his face has evil diseases and is extremely ugly, like a killing god, so he is called the ghost mask general.There are 80/[-] troops stationed at Dayu Border Pass, all of which are managed by him.

General Ghost Face became famous at a young age. Since he was named the Great General of the Town, all the border wars have been controlled by him, and he has never lost a battle.

It's just that Dayu is adjacent to Xia Kingdom, the border defense line is hundreds of miles long, and there are several camps, so even if he is called a ghost, he can't do it.

The camp where the outermost line of defense was breached before was not the camp near Jinjiang City where he was.

Fortunately, although the enemy broke through the outermost line of defense this time, it was still far from breaking into the interior. What they are doing now is to prevent the opponent from completely breaking through the line of defense.

Hearing Xu Lan's words, the man wanted to say something more, but the people in the Jinluan Hall had lost their patience.

Jin Qi's brows furrowed deeper, his eyes showed a cold look, "Okay, don't argue anymore, we'll talk about this later."

When Jin Qi opened his mouth, everyone below immediately shut up, not daring to speak again.

In the past two years, Jin Qi's temper has improved a lot, but everyone can still vividly remember the incident of his bloodbath at the court. They don't think that Jin Qi has killed fewer people in recent years because he has really put away his minions.

Interrupting the quarrel, Jin Qi took another look outside the hall, but after still not seeing the familiar figure, he asked, "Where is my prime minister?"

He had already noticed that Lin Xu hadn't come since Baiguan entered the palace. Originally, he only thought that Lin Xu was late, and he thought it was a little strange. After all, Lin Xu seemed calm and easy, but in fact he was very stubborn and stubborn in some aspects. It can be seen from the fact that he has never been late and asked for leave for so many years as an official in the court.

Jin Qi originally wanted to wait for this person to arrive and taunt him, but the morning court was almost over but the person hadn't appeared yet, and he hadn't seen anyone come to report his leave. Could it be that something really happened?

Hearing Jin Qi's questioning, all the officials shouted in a low voice, but no one knew what happened.

The chief eunuch on the side showed a look of embarrassment, he hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and whispered in Jin Qi's ear, "Your Majesty, yesterday you ordered the prime minister to be prohibited from entering the palace at will."

The Golden Luan Hall is naturally part of the palace.

The emperor's oral order has been issued, so naturally you can't enter the palace without an order, otherwise it will be disrespectful.

As soon as he was reminded by the Jin Qijing, he immediately remembered what happened yesterday, and the corners of his mouth twitched when he was full of anxiety, and he couldn't laugh or cry for a while.

He said that he was not allowed to enter the palace at will. This person didn't even come to the morning court. He was obviously not very obedient on weekdays, but now he is obedient.

Why, are we still waiting for him to come over in person to make an apology and ask him to go to court?Lin Xu thought beautifully!It is absolutely impossible for him to do such self-deprecating things as the majestic ruler of a country.

Besides, it is obvious that he was the one who calculated to deduct his daily expenses from him first, and then took his baby dragon carp. He was the one who made the mistake first, so why should he apologize?Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!

"Back to court." Jin Qi flipped his clothes and went back to the bedroom.

At the end of the morning, Jin Qi went to the lake, took food and threw it into the water, and began to feed the fish.

I don't know if the fish were frightened yesterday and refused to approach him, so Jin Qi had to retreat to a pavilion a little further away.

Jin Qi was staring at the dragon carps that were approaching to eat immediately after he left, and was in a daze when the head eunuch had already led the two of them closer.

"He's here? Tell him to wait for me. I'm busy now and I don't have time." Jin Qi said without looking back.

Hearing this, the chief eunuch stopped in his tracks, with embarrassment appearing on his face.

Jin Qi, who had deliberately picked up the fish food and prepared to feed it again, looked back when he saw that the people standing far away were not the ones he had expected, so he immediately fell back to the stool in a daze as if discouraged.

"Your Majesty, He Zheng, the provincial servant under the door, just sent someone a batch of ornamental fish. He said that guppy fish are only found in the coastal areas. They are extremely rare. He knows that you like to raise fish, so he specially asked someone to send them back."

"It's red hot." Jin Qi didn't raise his eyebrows.

"This... yes." The head eunuch waved his hand, and the two people carrying the fish tank in the distance immediately stepped back.

It has never been a secret to those who are interested in the Dayu Emperor's Shangjin Qi Xiyu. Therefore, there are countless people who send fish to the palace every year, and many of them are rare and rare. However, after so many years, the palace still only has this fish. Pond dragon carp.

"Speaking of which, how many years have I been raising this dragon carp?" Jin Qi said suddenly.

The whole body of the dragon carp in this pond is red, and when swimming in the water, it looks like balls of flames, which is really pleasing to the eye.

"This dragon carp was raised by the emperor in the year when the prime minister became an official. I remember that it happened to be the same month. It has been more than seven years now."

Lin Xu entered the court as an official on the [-]th, and Jin Qi was only a teenager at that time.

At that time, Lin Xu was not yet the prime minister, but Jin Qi at that time had already bared his fangs and was washing the court with blood. In that year, many old officials in the court were replaced. It was also in that year that more than half of the former emperors died in his hands.

As if thinking of something, Jin Qi kept following the dragon carps swimming in the water.

The eunuch was about to say something more, when Jin Qi suddenly stood up and walked towards the lake.

"emperor?"

"Is one of my dragon carp missing?" Jin Qi leaned out with his hands on the fence.

The chief eunuch also quickly helped to count, but the number after counting was really wrong.This is terrible, he quickly asked someone to help count together, but no matter how many times he counted, there was one fish missing in the pond.

"Show off."

"emperor?"

"Go to the Prime Minister's Mansion." Jin Qi gritted his teeth.

In the prime minister's mansion, when Jin Qi led people rushing in, Lin Xu was stretching his chopsticks into the pot on the table. There was charcoal under the pot, and a few dishes of side dishes were placed beside it. A red dragon carp was swimming happily in the pot.

Lin Xu poked its stomach with chopsticks, seeing that it might be almost ripe, he threw a few cabbage leaves down.

The big, fat fish in the pot quickly poked its head over. It circled against the leaves and turned over by itself.

The chubby butler of the prime minister's mansion held dried chili peppers in his left hand and ginger and garlic in his right hand, and the guard was fanning beside him with a fan. Both of their foreheads were covered with cold sweat.

Seeing that the food in the pot was really about to be cooked, Jin Qi's heart twitched in his throat, and finally turned into a sentence, "I shouldn't have ordered you not to enter the palace, I was wrong!"

"Your Majesty, why are you here?" Lin Xu seemed to realize that Jin Qi was here, and quickly added some dried red peppers to the pot.

The chili is insoluble in water and floats on the surface of the water. The stupid fish in the water leaned up to touch it and opened its mouth to eat it, but the face in the yard turned pale.

"I shouldn't have ordered you not to enter the palace, I shouldn't have eaten and drank for free in the prime minister's mansion, I shouldn't have deliberately angered you, and I shouldn't touch your book, I was wrong, I was wrong, let's go!" Jin Qi hurriedly He ran forward to pick up the pot and protect it in his arms, this man really wanted to eat it!
