Chapter 187: Shot in the throat
In the side hall.
The emperor first asked Prime Minister Wang, "How is the implementation of the Enfeoffment Order going?"
Prime Minister Wang was stunned. He thought today was the day for the lucky bag. He never expected that the emperor would suddenly ask about the Enfeoffment Order.
After a pause, Prime Minister Wang said, "Your Majesty, perhaps because of the matter of the Prince of Huainan, the Prince of Jing and the Prince of Yan were very cooperative, and the other three princes did not raise any objections."
The emperor nodded and said, "You must remember that the credit for the Enfeoffment Order came from Jiuer. Think about how to reward and thank Jiuer."
A question mark slowly popped up in Prime Minister Wang’s mind.
Wait a minute, this credit of Extension of Favor will attract a lot of hatred.
Didn't Your Majesty push the King of Huainan out before to make him a target for other princes and some powerful people? Why are you giving the young imperial teacher the credit now?
At this time, the emperor asked the Minister of War, "Who or you are responsible for handling the lucky bag?"
The Minister of War was nervous, fearing that some shameless old soldier would snatch the lucky bag from him.
The Minister of War said loudly: "Your Majesty, I will distribute the money impartially and will not embezzle a single needle or thread."
"Yes. I believe you." The emperor nodded slightly, and then said, "Regarding the effectiveness of the lucky bag, it's time to promote it a little bit, and stop hiding it."
The Minister of War was also confused. He was impatient and could not help but say, "Your Majesty. If this is spread out, what if the Xiongnu and Chen people know about it in advance?"
The emperor took two steps to the Minister of War, tilted his head slightly, looked at him very seriously and said, "Even if the enemy knew, what can they do?"
The Minister of War choked up. After a pause, he spoke weakly, "They will be prepared."
The emperor sneered: "Hmm. What defense can they have? Or, what effective defense methods can they have?"
The Minister of War was completely choked.
Immediately afterwards, the eyes of the Minister of War became brighter and brighter.
Yes, even if the enemy knew the defensive effect of the lucky bag, what countermeasures could they use?
no!
The emperor suddenly laughed twice and said, "Gentlemen, once the enemy knows this, they can only doubt, speculate, and verify repeatedly, and finally they will be left with fear."
The court officials nodded in agreement. After all, this thing was beyond human control and people were all ordinary people, so their first reaction would be fear.
At this point, the emperor added: "Jiu'er works for the country and the people, so we must make her happy."
The Crown Prince understood, and so did Prime Minister Wang, the Minister of War, and others.
Why did His Majesty suddenly stop hiding the news and give the young imperial teacher the honor he deserved?
Because the young national teacher has strong self-protection ability.
Because the young imperial teacher wanted to return home in gorgeous clothes, and didn't like traveling at night in gorgeous clothes.
…
Once the emperor gave the order, the court officials had to rack their brains to figure out how to get it done.
The first is the Enfeoffment Order.
Prime Minister Wang knew very well that the Emperor only wanted Yuan Ruan to be praised, so the target of Prince Huainan must still exist. So when Prime Minister Wang pretended to be drunk, he deliberately made up a piece of false news.
The general idea is that the King of Huainan came to the capital to pay homage to the young imperial master. Seeing that the young imperial master was young, the King of Huainan deliberately gave him a difficult question. The young imperial master used the trick of "not worrying about the lack of power but worrying about the inequality" to solve the problem. Who would have thought that after hearing this method, the King of Huainan was impressed that the young imperial master's trick of shifting contradictions was extremely clever, and then he came up with the Enfeoffment Order.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone suddenly understood.
The case is solved! How could that idiot King Huainan come up with the Enfeoffment Order? It turns out that he tricked the little imperial teacher into knowing the answer, and then he copied his own ideas and came up with a sinister plot!
The little imperial teacher is really smart, and the King of Huainan is really hateful. It would be better if there was no King of Huainan, this troublemaker. It's all the King of Huainan's fault!
At the same time, the King of Huainan, who was thousands of miles away, sneezed heavily and suddenly felt that he was going to be in trouble.
…
Prime Minister Wang was actively spreading the news of the "Enfeoffment Order".
Here, the Minister of War did not spread the news intentionally, but lifted the gag order.
Therefore, the news that the golden purse blessed by the young imperial master could avoid harm spread like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins and arrived in front of those who were interested.
The general of Chen State took this news to the Xiongnu prince with a serious look on his face.
At this time, the eldest prince was sleeping soundly on Meiji's belly, and he was a little impatient when he was woken up.
While he was drinking, he listened to the Chen general's analysis of the national teacher's lucky bag.
After the other party finished speaking, the Xiongnu prince suddenly burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! Are you people from the Central Plains all idiots? Wearing a lucky bag can avoid harm? Hahaha... do you believe in this?"
The general of Chen State said solemnly: "Xia State's Imperial Master is indeed somewhat extraordinary."
"No need to respond?" The Xiongnu prince stood up disdainfully and suddenly pulled out a saber from the bed. "What do you think of the ability of my Xiongnu high priest? Is he powerful?"
The general of Chen State was startled, but still gave him face and said, "It is indeed good."
The Xiongnu prince slashed the head of Meiji, who was lying on the bed, with a knife. Then he picked up Meiji's head, which was still open, and laughed miserably: "She is the granddaughter of the high priest. It is said that the saint was blessed by the heaven and has the power to avoid disasters. Ha..."
The Xiongnu prince laughed and let go. His head hit the ground and he burped. "Did you see that? He still died just like that. Hahahaha...didn't they say that the imperial teacher was so powerful? Let's go and put a stop to their arrogance."
The eldest Xiongnu prince walked out immediately.
The generals of the Chen State, however, felt frightened and suddenly felt that after defeating the Xia State, they must immediately cut off ties with this man.
At this time, the Xiongnu prince took out a black longbow.
He pointed at the general of Daxia not far away and said with a stern look on his face, "How do you say it? It's like... a single arrow to the throat."
As he said this, he jumped on his horse and pulled the bow with great power.
The Xiongnu warriors nearby cheered and rejoiced.
"Bang..."
Long arrows whizzed out, and the generals of Daxia seemed to be stupid and did not even try to dodge.
The Xiongnu prince said contemptuously: "This is what you are jealous of..."
"call out!"
“Snap!”
Before the Xiongnu prince could finish his words, the personal guard riding on his left side was suddenly hit by an arrow and fell down, with the arrow shooting through his throat.
