Chapter 1156 Finale (4)

The next morning, after Fu Ciyi finished the morning court, he went straight back to the imperial study with Long Yi.

"Are you going to talk about Beiqi?"

After Long Yi sat down at the imperial desk, he looked up at his son, then turned his gaze to Eunuch Han.

Eunuch Han understood and immediately went out to guard outside the study.

Fu Ciyi said, "Now is the best time to prepare for the battle." He bowed and said, "I want to assign the military power from the Ling family and the Lou family to Pang Gaozhuo and Yan Bojian. After these two get to know the soldiers a little better, they will rush to the border immediately."

Long Yi pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "The Pang family has a lot of troops in the southwest, and now Pang Gaozhuo is in the capital, so he is also a hostage. Yan Bojian is the third son of Yan Cheng. He is quite a playboy. After joining the Imperial Guard, he seems to have become a different person. I can't help but wonder if the Yan family has any conspiracy..."

"Father, these two people are of noble character and are extremely loyal. Please, for my sake, believe them!" Fu Ciyi bowed deeply.

Long Yi suddenly smiled: "Okay, I agree."

The son must have his own power.

He is willing to give him a chance to develop.

"Thank you, Father!"

"Can you solve the Beiqi issue?"

"can."

"Very good." Long Yi changed the subject, "I heard that you surrounded Li Hui's residence?"

"Didn't the emperor ask me before, can't I even deal with a girl from Northern Qi? There is a girl from Northern Qi in Long Lihui's mansion, and Long Lihui has occupied my position as the crown prince for a long time. I don't need any other reason to deal with them now."

Long Yi did not get angry but laughed: "Someone reported it to me today because I was not satisfied with your methods."

How can there be such a straightforward method?
"It's just that my brothers, seeing that they can find something to hold against me, can't wait for the emperor to punish me."

"Aren't you afraid of my punishment?"

"I have done nothing wrong. Of course, Father, please punish me if you want."

Long Yi laughed loudly: "You go back."

As soon as Fu Ciyi left the palace, a minister immediately entered the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, it is inappropriate for His Royal Highness Prince Rui to privately besiege His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince in the mansion."

"King Rui's men are in charge of several doors and don't allow people to enter or leave. It is said that the food ingredients are pushed in through the door and the inspection is strict, and no one is allowed to bring in."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince's wife is a princess of Beiqi after all. Such a siege is no different from house arrest. It would be inappropriate to spread the news."

The other ministers echoed this.

Long Yi looked at the ministers representing Prince Xian, Prince Yan, Prince Qi, and Prince Rong, and said indifferently, "Does my legitimate son need to ask for your consent for anything he does?"

After these words were spoken, the ministers looked at each other in bewilderment.

What does the emperor mean?

Prince Rui's actions last night were to compete for the position of crown prince. The emperor did not blame him for such an obvious purpose. On the contrary, he hoped that Prince Rui could do more.

For a moment, the ministers didn't know what to say.
-
Not long after Fu Ciyi left the palace and returned to Prince Rui's Mansion, two imperial edicts of appointment were issued from the palace, one to the Pang family and the other to the Yan family.

Late last night, before Pang Gaozhuo and Yan Bojian left the palace, Fu Ciyi specifically told them to stay in their respective residences for the day.

They originally thought that even if the imperial edict came quickly, it would arrive in the afternoon.

Unexpectedly, when the imperial edict arrived, it was still early.

Pang family.

The eunuch read out the imperial edict and gave it to Pang Gaozhuo with a smile: "Congratulations, General Zhengbei. Accept the edict."

Pang Gaozhuo received the order and stood up happily to express his gratitude.

Everyone in the Pang family stood up one after another.

"Brother, you are so awesome!" Pang Anmeng was very happy.

You should know that the General who Conquers the North is a third-rank official.

Jin Lingcen smiled and congratulated: "Congratulations, brother-in-law!"

Old Madam Pang, who was supported by a maid, smiled from ear to ear and kept saying, "The emperor's grace is so great, the emperor's grace is so great!" Almost at the same time, Eunuch Han finished reading the imperial edict at Yan's house.

The old Duke was pleased, and pulled Eunuch Han aside, and asked softly: "Eunuch, can you tell me why the Emperor suddenly conferred the title of Grandson to me?"

You have to know how many years it has been since the Yan family’s military power was taken back.

Although the military power he has returned to now is not much, does this move have any implications?
Eunuch Han smiled and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Rui is entering the palace today. This is all I can say."

The old Duke nodded and quietly handed a red envelope to Eunuch Han.

After some refusals, Eunuch Han finally accepted it with a smile: "Then I will go back to the palace to report."

The old Duke quickly ordered the butler to see the guests off. Turning around, he saw the eldest grandson, the fourth grandson, and the fifth grandson surrounding the third grandson.

"You've made progress." Yan Honghou patted his brother on the shoulder, "General Anyuan, a fourth-rank official."

This guy was promoted from a junior general of the sixth rank to the fourth rank General Anyuan, which made his eldest brother, who only had the title of the crown prince, very happy...

Besides, it would be a lie to say I wasn't envious.

Yan Bojian raised his eyebrows and said, "No, no, that's all. Pang Gaozhuo's rank is probably higher than mine."

After all, when he had no official position, Pang Gaozhuo was already a general.

Yan Jun smiled and said, "Third brother, please arrange a position for me."

"Do you think that I don't have to work anymore after I got promoted?" Yan Bojian straightened his back. "If fourth and fifth brothers want to achieve success, they can join the army." He shifted his gaze to his eldest brother, but didn't say anything. He just looked at him meaningfully.

The imperial edict did not say when they should leave Beijing, and he knew the reason, after all, Gongsun Sheng just left yesterday.

Now he can avoid telling his family about it in detail, so it’s better not to do so.

My brother-in-law is very thoughtful and his considerations are definitely correct.

They were all smart people, and Yan Honghou understood it immediately.

Last night, my third brother returned home at midnight, reeking of alcohol, which smelled quite pleasant.

With this in mind, while his family was congratulating his third brother, he left the Duke's Mansion and headed straight for Prince Rui's Mansion.

When Yan Honghou arrived at the palace, Fu Ciyi was in the study, frowning and thinking.

There were two tables in front of him.

One tabletop is a sand table, and the other tabletop is spread out with a world map.

"Brother-in-law." Yan Honghou stopped at the door of the study.

"Here?" Fu Ciyi didn't even raise his head, and pointed the thin pole in his hand at the border between Dajing and Beiqi, "What do you think, brother-in-law?"

Yan Honghou quickly stepped inside, lifted his robe and knelt on one knee: "Your Highness, please give me a chance. I am willing to lead the troops to the battlefield!"

Fu Ciyi quickly helped him up: "Now is not the time to send out my brother-in-law."

Hearing this, Yan Honghou was startled: "What does your highness mean?"

As long as the elder brother-in-law is willing to come to find him, it means that he is worthy of his trust. Fu Ciyi said softly: "Let's wait and see the two generals take command. There will be a time when the elder brother-in-law will be of use later."

If the world can be at peace after the Northern Qi issue is resolved, that would be the best thing.

He was afraid that Gongsun Sheng’s ambitions were bigger than he thought.

By then, he will have to come up with another strategy.

Yan Honghou nodded.
-
The night was dark.

In the Seventh Prince’s Mansion.

Gongsun Man learned that the mansion was still surrounded and the troops outside had no intention of withdrawing. In addition, she had not received any reply since she had been expecting the news last night, which made her annoyed.

Whenever he got irritated, he would whip things in the room with a whip.

With a crackling sound, the porcelain shattered all over the floor.

No one else dared to approach.

Only Yunquan stepped forward boldly and said, "Princess, please wait a little longer. Even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince arrives, it will take time."
