Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 610 Entering the Palace to Face the Saint

  According to Li Xin's credit this time, it's not too much for an emperor to take a hundred officials out of the city for ten miles to meet them, but they came back at night, and most of the officials have already left work, so there are not many people who come here to "work overtime".

   Three of the five prime ministers of the three provinces came, and Zhang Haoran, who was Zuo Pushe, was standing there impressively.

   Although the six ministers did not arrive, at least one servant was sent over.

   This battle is already very big.

  Especially after the Marquis of Jing'an got off the carriage, he saw Zaifu Zhang Qu beside him, holding a boy of five or six years old. This boy is none other than Ji Yan, who used to be the prince of the Prince of Wei's house, and now His Royal Highness!

Originally, Li Xin was still a little careless, but after seeing this little doll, he became serious, turned his head and said to Zhao Fang: "You don't get down on the carriage, no one will let you down except me calling you. ignore him."

   Although Zhao Fang came from a noble family, but after all, he was young and had never seen the big world. Hearing this, he immediately lowered his head and said, "Okay..."

  Although it was already dark at this time, the west gate of the capital was brightly lit, and the lights were brightly illuminated here.

  Li Xin tidied up his clothes, walked straight to Zhang Qu, and was about to kneel in front of the five- or six-year-old boy.

   "My minister Li Xin, I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince."

Li Xin just made a move, and Zhang Qu, who was beside him, immediately stretched out his hand to support him, the Haoran Gong shook his head, hehe smiled and said: "Master Jing'an, we are all here to welcome you today by His Majesty's order, so there is no need to do so. Such a great gift."

Saying that, Zhang Qu, whose beard and hair were all white, turned to look at the little boy who was holding his hand, and smiled: "Originally, His Majesty was going to come to greet the Marquis in person, but it was dark and it was not convenient for His Majesty to leave the palace, so he let him go. In his place, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to greet Lord Li."

Li Xin also clasped his fists at Zhang Qu, and said with a wry smile: "King Haoran, this time the west expedition, Xiaguan did not have much credit, and Xiaguan is only a lieutenant, even if he did, it was due to Ye Shaobao, the court is so big. The battle came to greet him, and he was dismissed as an official."

   "Li Houye is too modest."

Haoran laughed loudly and said: "The military newspapers in the southwest have been sent back to the capital. Your Majesty specially let us ministers read it many times. The old man even copied a copy and took it home to read it. I don't know how many times. Xi, General Ye certainly has the power to coordinate the overall situation, but in terms of credit, Li Houye is the first person who deserves it."

   "This is something that has been recognized by the court, and Li Houye doesn't need to say more."

  Li Xin's face darkened.

This time, when he returned to Beijing, he originally wanted to keep a low profile and try to put the credit on the collective, or on the Ye family, so that he could make a fortune in a low voice, but he didn't expect that before he returned to Beijing, the emperor Taikang had already Help him spread the word.

   Not only propaganda, but also characterize the Westward Expedition.

   He, Li Xin, was the first hero.

   On the surface, this seems to be the most favored, but in fact, it is not a good thing. If the relationship between Li Xin and the Ye family is a little bit worse, Ye Ming, the master, will inevitably have a gap with him.

But fortunately, before returning to Beijing, Li Xin and Ye Ming had carefully reviewed the situation before and after the Western Expedition. The two of them would say the same thing to the court, and Ye Sheng had Ye Sheng in the Ye family. There should be no resentment towards Li Xin.

  When the Marquis of Jing An was thinking about this matter, His Royal Highness, who was led by Zhang Qu, ran to Li Xin, pulled Li Xin's sleeve, and said crisply, "Uncle Li..."

   He knew Li Xin.

When Li Xin was working in Yulinweili, he often went in and out of the Wei Wangfu. At that time, he was regarded as half of the Wei Wangfu's "assistant", and sometimes he would drink there until midnight. His Royal Highness took him out and said that he wanted to recognize Li Xin as his master.

   But then Li Xin declined.

   At that time, His Highness the Crown Prince Ji Yan was only three or four years old. Now that two or three years have passed, he should be six years old.

   Li Xin squatted down, stretched out his hand and grabbed the sleeve of His Royal Highness, and said with a smile, "His Royal Highness, what are your orders?"

  The Crown Prince glanced at Li Xin, and then said in a milky voice, "Uncle Li, you... turned black..."

   It's been more than a year, and most of the time I've been at war, and I've been in the mountains for more than two months. The Marquis of Jing'an was inevitably tanned.

   In fact, he was not only blackened a little, but blackened a lot.

   Li Xin laughed dumbly, and said, "I was basking in the sun outside, so it became dark."

  Prince held Li Xin's sleeve with one hand and scratched his head with the other.

   "Uncle Li, the royal father said...I want to see you..."

   The little prince finally remembered what Emperor Taikang had told him before he came, and said word by word, "I want you to go back to the palace with me."

  Li Xin didn't answer, but looked up at Zhang Qu.

   Haoran sighed.

   "I know that Marquis Li has worked hard all the way. I should have gone back and rested for a few days, but His Majesty did have such a will, please work hard and go back to the palace with His Royal Highness..."

Li Xin stood up from the ground and smiled wryly at Zhang Qu: "Gong Haoran, you have seen it, not only is Xiaguan described as sloppy, but also his clothes have not been washed for several days, I am afraid to enter the palace like this, I am afraid Holy drive."

   Marching is nothing else, even taking a bath is delusional, let alone doing laundry, there is no woman in the barracks, and basically no one can wear clean clothes.

   But Li Xin's clothes were washed, um, Xiao Zhao let him wash them.

   The reason why he excused himself was because he wanted to go home before entering the palace.

Duke Haoran patted Li Xin on the shoulder, and said softly, "Your Majesty has ordered that as soon as Lord Hou returns to the capital, he will immediately summon Lord Hou into the palace. At this time, His Majesty has already set up a banquet for Lord Hou in the palace to take care of Lord Hou. already."

   "As for clothes and the like, Lord Hou doesn't have to care about the details. No one will say anything about Lord Hou at this moment."

   Zhang Qu was the first civil servant in the court.

   He opened his mouth to speak, and Li Xin had no choice but to retort. Hearing that, he could only bow his head slightly and sighed, "That being the case, the lower official can only lose his respect."

   Seeing that Li Xin had agreed, the little prince hurriedly held Li Xin by the sleeve and walked towards the carriage in the palace.

   They just took two steps when they heard a heavy voice behind them.

   "Li Houye entered the palace to face the saint, then these people will be taken away by our punishment department."

   Li Xin looked back and saw a middle-aged man in his fifties, bending slightly towards him.

   Minister of Punishment, silence.

The official to the six ministers is already a minister of the second rank, and he is only one step away from the real minister of the supreme minister. Come to think of it, Li Xin is at the same level as this Shen Shangshu.

   After hearing this sentence, Li Xin was not surprised. He brought back a lot of criminals, and naturally there will be yamen who want someone from him.

   He turned around and clasped his fists in return to Silent, and said with a smile, "I don't know which prisoner Shen Shangshu wants?"

   Silent was relieved to see Li Xin speak so well.

  Although he didn't need to be afraid of Li Xin, but at this time, the Marquis of Jing'an had a lot of credit, and no one could touch his bad head at this time.

   "The principal offenders in the southwest are all the responsibility of the Ministry of Punishment."

   Li Xin said with a smile, "Alright then, Shen Shangshu will take His Highness Prince Qin back."

   Silent frowned, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Li Xin continue.

   "Although it stands to reason that His Royal Highness King Qin should transfer it to the sect."

  Shen Shangshu took a deep breath and continued: "Then ask Mr. Li to hand over the leader of the Pingnan Army thief to my punishment department."

   "Li Shen" was already dead, so this Li Shen who was brought back to the capital, even if everyone knew who he was, was still replaced by "Pingnan Army Bandit Leader" in the official document.

   Lord Jingan frowned.

   "Who is the leader of the Pingnan Army bandit?"

  Shen Shangshu said solemnly, "Li Shen, Marquis of Pingnan."

  Li Xin laughed dumbly.

   "Shen Shangshu must have made a mistake. Li Shen, Marquis of Pingnan, has been dead for almost two years."

   Recommend a friend's new book "I have a Book of Revelation", which is fantastic, and interested friends can read it!
