Chapter 471 Return to the Sea [Please give me a monthly ticket! ]

In the Qinzheng Hall, green smoke was curling up.

The palace servant replaced the coal in the beast-mouthed copper furnace, then left in a hurry without daring to look up. A thin figure appeared behind the screen in the inner hall, talking with the emperor behind the desk. Every time he came, the formation in the hall would be activated, and no sound could be heard from the outer hall.

This means that what he discussed with Your Majesty were important secrets of Kyushu.

Of course, it is not difficult to guess what they are talking about this time.

Liang Fuguo had just returned to the court when he punched the Minister of State. His Majesty summoned this man into the palace at this time, and naturally they talked about this matter.

The person who was talking face to face with Mu Beidi at this time was named Shen Guizang.

His father was the former Right Prime Minister. He grew up with Emperor Mu Beidi and was once a companion to the Eastern Palace. He took part in the imperial examination at the age of fourteen and won the first place.

However, in order to avoid his father's suspicion, he chose not to enter the officialdom, hiding his identity and turning to business. In a few years, he had spread his business all over the country, and he was just a young man.

It happened that the previous emperor passed away, and Emperor Mubei hastily ascended the throne, and Jiuyang launched a large-scale invasion.

The court was in turmoil at this time, and many people did not support launching a war. They all suggested negotiating peace with Jiuyang, sacrificing some interests, and then stabilizing the rear.

When he was wavering, Emperor Mubei also met with Shen Guizang, and then he resolutely set the reign title of Mubei and sent troops to fight. Shen Guizang donated all his family wealth to the military expenses, and later when the emperor led the army to fight, he accompanied him as a military advisor and offered many important strategies.

It can be said that Shen Guizang’s participation was indispensable to every important move made by Emperor Mu Beidi in his early days.

After the Northwest War, Emperor Mubei awarded merits and Shen Guizang was ranked in the top three, higher than his father Shen Xiang. However, he still did not want any reward, and only asked for a piece of land in Baiyu Mountain to build a villa. Since then, his whereabouts have been unknown.

The name of the village is "Gui Hai".

The common people entered the court and returned to the sea.

Most of the elders in the palace have a consensus that if this person enters the palace again, it means that His Majesty is unsure about something again.

"Your Majesty, didn't you use Liang Fuguo because you saw this in him?" Shen Guizang's voice echoed slowly behind the screen, "He is very capable and unstoppable."

"He did a good job in removing the sores from the court. Although there were many things that were not in line with the rules, they were all beneficial to the country. This is a fact." Mu Beidi frowned, his eyes deep, "But now he has spread the fire to the army..."

"Your Majesty is worried that if you touch the Minister of State, it will cause unrest in the army, right?" Shen Guizang said bluntly: "If Your Majesty does not want to touch him at all, there is no need to summon me to discuss it. You should have refuted Liang Fuguo in the court earlier."

Emperor Mu Bei was silent for a moment before he said, "The prince is young..."

"In fact, the prince is not young anymore, Your Majesty." Shen Guizang smiled, "When you first succeeded to the throne, you were much younger than him."

"But his situation will be more difficult than mine." Mu Beidi said.

"That's true." Shen Guizang nodded, "So even though some things involve risks, we have to do them."

"Whether the army will be in turmoil is hard to predict. We still have to see how the army reacts. Your Majesty, why don't you summon the generals and gather them together to come up with the result of this matter? If there are more people who support the Minister of State, then it will be difficult to act rashly. But what if... there are more people who support Liang Fuguo?"

……

Liang Yue's title was naturally something worth celebrating, but considering his current situation, it was not appropriate to celebrate it in a big way.

Not to mention that a dying person shouldn't be in a good mood, if you hold a big banquet now because of your title, you will have to hold another one after a few days when you are gone. All relatives and friends who come will have to bring two gifts.

Everyone’s mood probably won’t be very good.

So the Liang family just got together and had a meal together, which was considered a celebration.

Probably because he was about to die, no relatives or friends came to congratulate him. The first person to come and congratulate him was Qi Yingwu.

"Brother Qi."

Liang Yue welcomed him into his home. The Liang family mansion was now spacious, and the enlightenment tree was hidden in the backyard. It was not noticeable, and there was no need to worry that someone coming in would discover it.

"Congratulations, Brother Liang, on being awarded the title of Earl." Qi Yingwu said with a smile, "In a few days, the Danding Sect will cure your poison. Then we will invite everyone to come and celebrate for you."

"Of course." Liang Yue also laughed, "I went to the Mianbi Temple two days ago, and Master Gu Chi said that I have no chance of seeing death, and my life span is ridiculously long."

When he went to Mianbi Temple to meet the old monk, Gu Chi was indeed shocked that Liang Yue had no death crisis at all. Not only had he not had any death crisis recently, but he had never had any death crisis in his life.

Ever since he had achieved success in Zen and was able to see people's destinies, the old monk had never seen such a smooth and successful life.

But Liang Yue was not worried about being discovered by him. Instead, he said, "Doesn't that mean I can easily get through this disaster?"

Gu Chi just felt strange and did not give any further advice on Liang Yue's fate.

After the greetings, Qi Yingwu asked directly, "I heard that His Majesty wants to summon the Nine Provinces God Generals to the Divine Capital to discuss the Ministry of War together. Brother Liang, do you know about this?"

Liang Yue shook his head calmly and said, "I don't know."

Qi Yingwu was appointed as a scholar of Wen'antang after the battle to seize the city. He had been in the court every day recently, so he was naturally well-informed. Of course, even if he didn't have this level, he was still the young master of the Qi family, so he was the first to know the relevant news in the court.

Liang Yue didn't have such a well-informed channel, and everyone thought he was in cahoots with Liang Fuguo. But only he knew that Liang Fuguo would never tell him anything.

As expected, Qi Yingwu was also a little puzzled, "Didn't the Left Prime Minister tell you?"

"..." Liang Yue was silent for a moment, "Brother Qi, you know, we really have no relationship."

"I know, I know everything." Qi Yingwu nodded and said, "I came here to ask you to give a message to the Prime Minister Zuo."

"..." Liang Yue was completely speechless. Listen to what you are saying?

You know all this, what else do you want me to bring?
Isn't it the same as me asking the doorman of the Liang Mansion to bring it to him?

"My grandfather has always admired Lord Zuo Xiang, and they have never had any disagreements on the affairs of the Ministry of War. Now that the Left Prime Minister suddenly mentioned my grandfather in the court, he actually doesn't quite understand." Qi Yingwu said: "If Lord Zuo Xiang really has an opinion on the Nanzhou Military Town incident, then my grandfather can be relieved of the Ministry of War affairs. He still wants to continue to lead the Wu'an Hall, but if it's for other reasons..."

Qi Yingwu paused, and then slowly said: "What my ancestor wanted to say was that everyone in the court said that Chen Su was a knife that Liang Fuguo invited down the mountain, but isn't Liang Fuguo also a knife in your majesty's hand?"

"Chen Su can go back to the mountain after killing people, but you, Liang Fuguo... have a place to go back to?"
