"I have Lan Zhong, the commander-in-chief of a thousand soldiers, who has taken the title of Marquis of Kaijing with 1000 and two hundred households. He will be promoted to the commander-in-chief and lead the entire army of Nanhe Province!"

"Lan Yu, the Marquis of Hongdu, led the army, drank from the vast sea of ​​horses, and became the Duke of Liang Kingdom!"

boom! !

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Hahaha, dear generals, get up quickly, today is really a happy day!"

Seeing Lan Yu and Lan Zhong kneeling at the front of the court, Emperor Zhu Chongba on the throne was extremely happy.

Because their faces are really young, and one is younger than the other!

This means that he is old and his old friends are old, but there are still successors to the country!

The same was true for all the officials in the court, but apart from their excitement, they had other discussions.

First, it was because Lan Zhong's obviously still very immature face was too eye-catching.

At such a young age, he had already been granted the title of Marquis, and had gained the real power of commanding the military affairs of a province.

What level will it rise to in the future? They don't even dare to think about it.

You must make good friends afterwards!

But this Lan Zhong is Lan Yu’s adopted son. It’s too difficult to deal with a bastard like Lan Yu. In addition, Lan Yu is now a duke...

As for the second one, the situation is more complicated.

Another target in these discussions was Xu Jin, Duke of Xu, the greatest contributor to the Liaodong victory.

"How will Your Majesty reward Commander Xu? Commander Xu has no title and no reward, right?"

"Shuai Xu is worthy of being the pillar of the army. Even though his hair is gray, he still looks like a god of war."

"If you go further, you can only be crowned king. But since the founding of our country, there has never been such a precedent. King Cainan is also your majesty's adopted son."

"Didn't you hear the imperial edict just now? You were still thinking about being promoted. The military affairs of Nanhe have been assigned to Marquis Kaijing. That's Lan Yu. He is now a duke like Xu Shuai!"

"Keep your voices down, let's see what His Majesty plans."

Listening to all the discussions at the rear, Xu Jin stood at the forefront but remained unmoved. This did not mean that he was not worried in his heart, but that he had already expected this day to come.

So at this moment, all he wanted to do was wait for Emperor Zhu Chongba to speak first. Whether it was to take care of his old age or not, he would accept it and he could retreat.

Unlike Tang Ding, he still firmly believed in the original brotherhood. He did not believe that the emperor would punish him.

The court slowly became quiet, and everyone began to wait for Emperor Zhu Chongba to speak.

"Third brother!"

At this moment, the emperor Zhu Chongba, who was sitting on the dragon throne, felt complicated in his heart.

"The younger brother is here."

When Xu Jin heard this title, he felt inexplicably relieved and took a step forward.

"After spring, we plan to go out to travel the mountains and rivers with my sister. I plan to take you with me and give you the qualification to choose other good brothers to travel with me. What do you think?"

"What! Traveling?"

Before Xu Jin could answer, there was an explosion in the court.

"Your Majesty! If you travel, who will handle the affairs of the country, the country, and the country?"

Some ministers came out immediately, as if they were raising their own questions, but in fact they were trying to cooperate.

"We plan to hand it over to the prince. After our trip next year, the prince will supervise the country! I hope all of you will cooperate with me!"

"Prince overseeing the country?"

"I obey my orders!!!"

All the officials in the imperial court, no matter how big the shock was in their hearts at the moment, immediately gave a neat response.

But the emperor Zhu Chongba on the dragon throne knew it, and so did the officials in the court who responded.

A new storm has begun to brew.

However, Emperor Zhu Chongba was happy with his success, while all the officials in the court were completely at a loss.

"Your Majesty, I'm old and sick, and I really can't swim anymore. It's better to exchange it for a gold and silver field deed. I like to live my life guarding these common things."

Xu Jin finally gave the answer.

After hearing this, Baiguan felt that it was both unexpected and expected.

After all, the God of War traded his reputation for peace.

Emperor Zhu Chongba, who was sitting on the Dragon Throne, was naturally satisfied with this answer. However, when he looked at the faintly shaking figure at the door of Fengtian Hall, he had other concerns in his mind.

"Why are you so old, third brother? We see that you are still very strong!"

"It's just that you don't want to travel with us, but you still want to keep those mundane things at home every day? No, absolutely not!"

"We have a good errand for you!"

"Wang Ban!"

Emperor Zhu Chongba waved his hand to the old eunuch Wang Ban beside him, indicating that he would read out the imperial edict he had prepared long ago.

Xu Jin was puzzled, and all the officials were also confused. They didn't know what Emperor Zhu Chongba was thinking.

But soon they knew what Emperor Zhu Chongba had planned.

"From now on, I will appoint Xu Jin, Duke of Xu State, as the Crown Prince and Grand Master, the Chief Assistant of the East Palace Cabinet Council, and also responsible for the affairs of the people's livelihood in the world!"

"Third brother, you don't need to work hard on the cabinet affairs. All you need to do is nod your head. The prince will be entrusted to you while we travel with my sister."

"what!"

Xu Jin didn't expect that Emperor Zhu Chongba had such a big move waiting for him.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not expect that after the chief assistant of the Zhao Mansion was gone, Emperor Zhu Chongba would actually use this method to directly abandon the Zhao Mansion and let Xu Jin take control of the cabinet.

Is it reasonable?

It seems that Xu Jin is the only one with such a reputation in the Sun and Moon Dynasty.

But as Xu Jin said, he is indeed old, and before the founding of the People's Republic of China, he was in charge of military affairs. If he was also in charge of the cabinet, who would control military affairs?

Most of the people in the court were surprised by this and started talking again. Only a few people directly understood Emperor Zhu Chongba's plan, and raised Lan Zhong's importance by another level in their hearts.

"Your Majesty! I don't understand..."

"Third brother! When you also served as the Prime Minister of Zhongshu Province, we saw that you did a good job, and we believed in you!"

Xu Jin wanted to throw away this blame at the first moment. He would rather retire and return to his hometown to live out his life at home.

But Emperor Zhu Chongba interrupted him directly with another reason.

Prime Minister Zuo of Zhongshu Province?

Yes, that's right, he once held this position.

However, anyone with a discerning eye could see that this move was just to occupy a position, and its real function was to control Li Shan, the right prime minister of Zhongshu Province.

How come now, it has become one of my outstanding resumes.

Xu Jin took a deep look at Emperor Zhu Chongba who was sitting on the dragon throne. Emperor Zhu Chongba still had a smile on his face, and his eyes seemed to really trust him.

However, he will no longer trust this emperor.

Maybe the eldest brother I had sworn friends with at the beginning really didn't know how to get rid of the trouble and kill the donkey.

But when it comes to killing someone with a borrowed knife, as long as you still have some value left, the other party will definitely make the best use of it.

boom!

"I accept the order, your majesty and your empress, please feel free to travel..."

Xu Jin was frustrated.

However, today's morning meeting would not end so simply.

The prince's supervision of the country is an important step before the prince ascends the throne, and it is basically the last step.

Therefore, except for Xu Jin, a military giant, the civil servants could not escape the rearrangement.

"Liu De, the doctor in the Ministry of War, and Xia Yan, the censor of the Supervisory Academy, are on the line!"

"Xuan, Tu Jie, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, will bring Zheng Zhi into the palace!"
