After lying on the table all night, Yun Zheng woke up with a sore back.
When he turned his head, he met Shen Luoyan's gaze.
"Hey, you awake?"
Yun Zheng stretched his stiff body a little, looked at Shen Luoyan with a smile, and said jokingly: "From today on, should I call you my beloved concubine?"
"Whatever you want to say!"
Chen Luoyan glared at him unhappily and asked, "Why don't you come to ** to sleep?"
"I wouldn't dare."
Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled, "If you mistake me for a thief and beat me up, I, the Sixth Prince, will be extremely embarrassed."
"You are quite sensible!" Shen Luoyan curled her lips.
In fact, she pretended to be drunk for this very purpose.
...
...
If Yun Zheng dared to do anything bad, she would beat him up under the pretext of being drunk.
Anyway, I was "drunk"!
Even if the emperor blames me, he probably won't do anything to me.
Unexpectedly, Yun Zheng actually acted like a gentleman for once.
Yun Zheng rolled his eyes at her, stood up and said, "Alright, hurry up and get ready! We have to go to the palace to pay our respects to our father in a little while!"
well!
It hurts!
I don’t know which bastard came up with this crappy rule.
On the first day after their marriage, the newlyweds have to pay their respects to the groom’s parents.
With a heart full of resentment, Yun Zheng yawned, opened the door, and asked the maid in the mansion to help Shen Luoyan change clothes and wash up, while he just washed himself casually.
After they finished packing, they rushed to the palace before dawn.
However, as soon as the two men arrived outside Emperor Wen's bedroom, Mu Shun stopped them.
"Your Highness, Sixth Prince, Sixth Prince's Consort, His Majesty did not sleep well yesterday. His Majesty has instructed that when you come to pay your respects, you can just bow and leave..."
Why didn’t you say it earlier!
Yun Zheng complained in his heart, bowed to Shen Luoyan outside the door, and quickly ran away.
After returning home, Yun Zheng went straight to catch up on his sleep.
Shen Luoyan was in high spirits and took a dozen people who followed him from the Shen family to the backyard to practice martial arts.
“Boom boom boom…”
Just when Yun Zheng was sleeping soundly, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Yun Zheng was woken up and was about to get angry when Xin Sheng's voice rang out outside the door.
"Your Highness, someone from the palace has come to announce the decree!"
Announce the decree?
Yun Zheng's face was filled with black lines.
Damn it!
This really doesn't make people sleep peacefully!
have to!
Get up!
Yun Zheng yawned and quickly turned over and got up.
When I came outside, Shen Luoyan was already waiting there.
The person who came to announce the decree was none other than Mu Shun.
Behind Mu Shun stood a group of Yulin Guards, each holding something in their hands.
It’s a reward at first glance!
Well, considering the reward, I won’t mind having my sweet dreams disturbed!
"The Sixth Prince Yun Zheng and the Sixth Prince's Consort Shen Luoyan received the order..."
Seeing Yun Zheng coming out, Mu Shun immediately spoke loudly.
Yun Zheng and Shen Luoyan knelt down obediently to receive the order.
"The emperor has issued an edict: The Sixth Prince Yun Zheng has made great contributions to our dynasty by defeating the Beihuan conspiracy and presenting the method of forging patterned steel. As an exception, the Sixth Prince Yun Zheng is named King of Jingbei and is granted the title of Fourth Rank Loyal and Martial General..."
Next, there are a lot of rewards.
However, Yun Zheng had no intention of caring about those rewards.
King Jingbei!
A fourth-rank loyal and martial general!
General Zhongwu, it seems that he can command an army of 9,000, right?
Moreover, as a prince, he can also privately recruit some soldiers as his personal guards!
Two songs make one!
That’s also a thousand people!
By this calculation, I am also a person who commands over ten thousand soldiers?
Oh shit!
This happiness came so suddenly!
King Zhenbei changed his name to King Jingbei?
A difference of one word can make a world of difference.
Jingbei, that means we must go to Shuobei and fight to the death with Beihuan!
"Sixth Prince, Sixth Prince..."
Just when Yun Zheng was overwhelmed by the beauty, Mu Shun's voice rang in his ears.
Yun Zheng reacted and quickly reached out to receive the order: "I accept your order and thank you!"
"Congratulations, Your Highness."
Mu Shun handed the imperial edict to Yun Zheng and said, "From now on, I should call Your Highness Prince!"
"Where, where."
Yun Zheng pulled Shen Luoyan to stand up, "General Manager Mu, just call me Sixth Prince. No matter if I am a king or a general, I am still the son of the emperor."
Loyalty!
I still have to express it!
I have just received so many benefits, so I have to say something nice.
Moreover, even if he is crowned as king, it is fine to call him His Highness.
He is a prince, but also the sixth prince!
As long as Emperor Wen was still on the throne, no matter who it was, calling him "Sixth Prince" would not be considered a violation of etiquette.
"Your Highness, I will report every word of what you said to His Majesty. If His Majesty knew, he would definitely be very happy." Mu Shun laughed and said, "Your Highness may not know that in order to make an exception to confer the title of King on Your Highness, His Majesty had a big quarrel with his ministers during the court meeting today..."
Is this true or false?
Did the emperor quarrel with his ministers?
Yun Zheng quickly pulled Mu Shun aside and asked him about the court meeting in detail.
Actually, it’s simple.
Emperor Wen wanted to make an exception and enfeoff Yun Zheng as king, but naturally this was met with fierce opposition from his ministers.
Finally, Emperor Wen became angry and said that if other princes went to Shuobei to fight a bloody battle with Beihuan, he would make them all kings!
After Emperor Wen said this, no one dared to object.
"Father has decided to use military force against Beihuan?"
Yun Zheng suppressed his excitement and asked.
Mu Shun's mouth twitched slightly, and he said in astonishment: "Your Highness, didn't you hear the imperial edict clearly just now?"
"this……"
Yun Zheng smiled awkwardly, "I was a little confused just now, and didn't hear what happened next."
"Your Highness is truly... a man of temperament!"
Mu Shun laughed dryly, and then continued, "The emperor still listened to the advice of his ministers and decided to use troops against Beihuan after March next year. However, Your Highness will go to Shuobei in a few days. The imperial edict has explained everything. Your Highness can take a closer look at the imperial edict later."
"Okay, okay! Thank you, Manager Mu!"
Yun Zheng nodded repeatedly.
Heading to Shuobei soon?
Good thing!
He looks forward to leaving the imperial city every day!
If it is really delayed until after March next year, who knows what unexpected changes may happen!
Mu Shun briefly chatted with Yun Zheng for a while, received Yun Zheng's reward, ordered his men to keep the reward, and then hurriedly led his men back to the palace to report.
Yun Zheng didn't bother to look at the rewards and quickly opened the imperial edict to read it again.
In addition to Prince Jingbei and General Zhongwu, Emperor Wen also rewarded him with a lot of gold, silver, silk and satin, and drew a group of soldiers from the Shenwu Army to directly replenish his palace troops, saving him the trouble of recruiting soldiers.
Weapons forged with patterned steel by the Craftsmen's Bureau will also be given priority in being supplied to Yun Zheng's soldiers.
As the Princess of Jingbei, Shen Luoyan will also accompany him to Shuobei.
This is clearly intended to build him up with powerful guards!
This time, my father is really going to fight to the death with Beihuan!
They were even mentally prepared for him to die in battle in Shuobei!
King Jingbei!
I guess it's to let him enjoy the title that he should be posthumously awarded in advance!
They set the time for their trip to Shuobei on the third day after the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was an auspicious day.
Counting the time, it seems that there are only eight or nine days left until Mid-Autumn Festival!
In other words, he will leave the imperial city within half a month!
good!
A few days earlier than originally planned!
"My Lord, are you stupid now?"
Shen Luoyan looked gloomy, staring at Yun Zheng unhappily, and said angrily: "This time, you really have to go to the battlefield, you can't hide even if you want to!"
Yun Zheng was crowned king as an exception, but Shen Luoyan was not happy at all.
She also felt that this was a way for Yun Zheng to enjoy the posthumous title in advance.
There might not have been any war in Shuobei before.
But His Majesty has made up his mind to use military force against Beihuan!
Shuobei will once again become a living hell!
Yun Zheng can hardly even ride a horse, so how can he go to the battlefield and fight the enemy?
"Isn't the princess here?"
Yun Zheng shrugged and smiled nonchalantly, "I believe that the princess is a skilled martial artist and will definitely protect me!"
Shen Luoyan choked slightly and glared at Yun Zheng angrily.
Wow, this identity change is really fast!
Is this the king?
