Chapter 111 The Autumn Banquet is Coming, Prepare for War

Shen Yi nodded, after such a circular connection, the commercial roads of the four places will be unimpeded, no matter whether they go south or north, it is all convenient.

They benefited a lot along the way. When Qin Su and Shen Yi returned to Shengjing, it was already the golden autumn of September. As soon as they entered the city, golden chrysanthemums were in full bloom everywhere, which was a very lively scene.

"The autumn feast is just around the corner, so it's time for us to come back."

Shen Yi glanced out and said to Qin Su.

"Then you will be busy when you go back to the palace."

Qin Su took a look at it, and there were probably banquets in the palace again every three days.

Shen Yi didn't have anything to do with it, anyway, the affairs in the palace had always been the same, and it would be of great benefit to know the customs of women in Beijing.

The two returned to the palace together, and the palace is much deserted now. After the implementation of the new policy, the canonization of the princes also proceeded as scheduled, and each set up a palace and moved out of the palace.

The second prince, the fourth prince, the sixth prince, and the ninth prince, each named Xian Wang, Wu Wang, Jing Wang, and Nanxiang King, had only false names, no fiefdoms, and no real power. He was named the governor of Nanxiang County and took charge of Nanxiang.

If you are unwilling, there are only the fourth prince and the sixth prince, but now the general situation has been settled, and they have long been exhausted. Even if they are unwilling, they have to accept their fate, not to mention the dead brothers who are still confined in the imperial tomb For those two brothers, the current ending is already worthy of luck.

Qin Su and Shen Yi returned to Yong'an Palace together. Before Qin Su could sit down and have a sip of tea, he was called away and had to go to work first.

When Qin Su arrived at the imperial study room, Qiu Luan waited with a serious face, and when he saw Qin Su coming in, he bowed to salute.

"Excuse me, what's going on?"

When Qin Su saw this, he knew that something big might be wrong.

"Something happened to Qingji."

Qiu Luan handed a blood-stained letter to Qin Su, and reported concisely.

Qin Su's heart skipped a beat, he hesitated for a moment, and then tore open the envelope.

-

Two months ago, in Fuliang Dadu, in a secret house.

Jin Qiwu was dressed in male attire, upon closer inspection, he was no different from Jin Lie, except for the slightly frowned long eyebrows that made it clear that she was not Jin Lie at a glance.

"The green halberd."

Jin Qiwu looked down at the green halberd who was wearing a belt around him, with inexplicable sadness in his eyes.

Qingji responded and raised her head, "What is the princess' order?"

"Qingji, if we can retreat completely this time, will we be able to return to Dayong?"

Jin Qiwu raised the hand of the green halberd. For more than a year, they have been ordered by Qin Su to lurk in the capital of Fuliang, and grasp any movements of Jin Lie in Fuliang. In addition, at the right time, relying on Jin Qiwu's extremely similar appearance to Jin Lie , to drive a wedge between the Fuliang royal family and Jin Lie.

It has to be said that Jin Qiwu and Qingji played a vital role in getting the princes of Fuliang to fight to the death with Jin Lie in the end. Fuliang's national power was consumed internally, and several civil wars not only consumed manpower and material resources, but also made Jin Lie's reputation for tyranny far and wide, creating a very favorable situation for Qin Su.

It's a pity that their overactivity before Jin Lie ascended the throne also aroused Jin Lie's suspicion, and it's not safe to stay any longer, not to mention that after Jin Lie took precautions, they had no greater effect , A month ago, they received a letter from Qin Su, allowing them to withdraw to Dayong.

Just when Jin Qiwu and Qingji were about to leave, they discovered the news that the sixth prince Qin Yun was going to Fuliang as an envoy. After much hesitation, the two decided to see what happened before leaving, but they didn't want to stay here. They really discovered something.

After paying a painful price, Qingji received unconfirmed evidence, that is, the sixth prince Qin Yun colluded with Jin Lie in an attempt to rebel, while the fifth prince of Fuliang, Jin Ge, was ordered by Jin Lie to pretend to rebel, and then Going to Dayong to ask for help, Fuliang took the opportunity to annihilate Dayong's reinforcements, broke open Dayong's gate, and provoked a war between the two countries.

Whether this news is true or not, which part is true and which part is false are all very important. If there is a slight mistake, it is very likely to miss a good opportunity, and it may also cause Dayong to fall into a passive war.

After several deliberations, today's event came about. Jin Qiwu still decided to take a risk, pretending to be Jin Lie again, and went deep into the enemy's camp to find out the truth.

This time is different from the past. In the past, people who were already at odds with Jin Lie were provoked and intensified. That person was already at odds with Jin Lie. Naturally, it was impossible for the two parties to verify each other's truth and falsehood. But this time, if Fu Liang The fifth prince, Jin Ge, is really pretending to tear himself apart with Jin Lie, then Jin Qiwu's situation will be dangerous, if he goes, he will be close to death.

Qingji listened to Jin Qiwu's words, looked at the fear on Jin Qiwu's face, stretched out his hands to hold her face, and nodded firmly, "This time is over, we will return to Dayong and Shengjing."

Jin Qiwu's tears fell on Qingji's hand unexpectedly, and he raised his hand to hold Qingji's hand, "Wait back to Dayong, will you marry me?"

Wiping off the tears on Jin Qiwu's face, Qingji's eyes were slightly red, and he agreed without hesitation, "Okay, when I get back to Dayong, I will go and ask His Highness for a marriage, and we will get married."

A smile appeared on Jin Qiwu's face, and he hugged Qingji, "Okay, let's get married."

……

Qin Su looked at the envelope. It was a letter that Qingji had already prepared, detailing their various guesses, as well as traces of redactions with blood. It should be a wrong guess that was crossed out in a hurry, and the rest is the correct information.

"Qin Yun colluded with the enemy, and Jin Ge arrived in Beijing soon to ask for help. It was Jin Lie's plan."

After Qin Su read it, he put down the letter, closed his eyes, and pressed his aching temple, "How's Qingji?"

"Missing."

Qiu Luan lowered his head, actually said that he was missing, and everyone knew what it meant.

Sitting slowly on the chair, Qin Su understood.

After a while, Qin Su opened his eyes, "It is said that General Yu, Marquis Changping, General Zhenyuan and other ministers are preparing for the battle against Fuliang."

Qin Su has been waiting for this day, but he didn't expect it to come so soon, but it doesn't matter, "Tell Prime Minister Shen, Wei Zikang."

The last step of the New Deal will also be implemented.

The news of the summoning from the imperial study also reached the ears of Shen Yi in Yong'an Palace. Hearing these ministers, Shen Yi frowned slightly, and also had an ominous premonition in his heart.

It was not until sunset that Qin Su returned to Yong'an Palace exhausted. When he saw Shen Yi, he hugged Shen Yi silently without saying a word.

Although Shen Yi didn't know what happened, looking at Qin Su's appearance, Shen Yi felt distressed, and quietly patted Qin Su's back, protecting Qin Su's rare fragility.

Not in the mood for dinner, Qin Suku sat on the couch and explained the ins and outs of the Qingji matter to Shen Yi clearly.

Shen Yi also did not expect that when she and Qin Su first met, Qing Ji was close to Qin Su's side, and Shen Yi and Qing Ji were also considered acquainted, but he really did not expect that this happened.

"If war breaks out..."

Shen Yi thought of the news that Qingji and Jin Qiwu risked their lives to send back, and felt even more uneasy.

"I haven't heard the news of Jin Ge's arrival yet. It will take about a few months for this back and forth to delay. The most urgent thing now is to implement the last step to support the war with war."

Qin Su is not afraid of the battle, and she even has a kind of expectation that it will finally come.

Shen Yi held Qin Su's hand tightly, and she would always follow Qin Su's choice.

Because of this news, the strings in the hearts of all insiders were tense, but their faces were still peaceful, except for some sensitive people who smelled something unusual from the newly implemented New Deal.

Shen Yi's autumn palace banquet was also held as scheduled. Before the southern tour, because of the implementation of the New Deal and Shen Yi himself was busy, so there was no banquet or meeting. It was even more impossible during the southern tour, but now it is just right , I can't shirk it anymore.

After Shen Yi consulted the Empress Dowager Jin, she confirmed that it was correct, and the Autumn Palace Banquet was held as scheduled.

This was the first palace banquet held by the new empress after the new emperor ascended the throne. In addition to this southern tour, Qin Su dealt with so many people in one go. Naturally, the ministers were trembling and trying to get an invitation.

On the day of the autumn banquet, clouds were flying around the temples and skirts were fluttering in the imperial garden, and there were almost a lot of ladies and noble ladies in Beijing, all of whom were among them, competing for splendor and beauty, just like a fairy palace banquet.

"The queen is here!"

With a cry, Shen Yi walked in slowly in a red phoenix robe.

Shen Yi has always seldom wore these bright colors, even the queen's formal dress phoenix robe was the same as the dragon robe, with red patterns and gold embroidery on a black background, dignified and majestic, with a darker color.

Now that she wears this color for the first time and has dignified and bright makeup, she seems to be a different person, completely different from the gentle and delicate before, graceful and luxurious, full of majesty, she really has the style of a mother.

Everyone bowed down and worshiped, Shen Yi sat down, and his own palace servants sang and drank.

Mrs. Gao Ming stepped forward to speak one by one. For so many years, since Empress Deren left, Dayong's empress position has been vacant. Even Jinhuang Guifei is only one step away from empress, but it is different after all.

The autumn banquet is one of the more formal banquets in the palace. It is mainly for admiring chrysanthemums. There are all kinds of chrysanthemums arranged in the imperial garden. Yes, people are dazzled and amazed.

Shen Yi talked to all the wives, and then went to change clothes, everyone's topic inevitably turned to Shen Yi, and all kinds of compliments were heard endlessly.

"The empress is really the number one in the world. She is so beautiful in Shengjing, and her talents are unrivaled in the world. Even the new policy was created by the empress. She really lives up to the name of the chosen one. Your Majesty is also very convinced and can marry her." It is also my great fortune to have such a good helper."

"Yes, yes, it's a pity... If Your Majesty and the Empress can have a prince, it will be perfect."

"Shh, that's hard to say. I heard that His Majesty hates such remarks the most."

……

All kinds of babbling and babbling are naturally indispensable, but in the end they only dared to mutter in their hearts, not having the courage to dance in front of Qin Su and Chen Yi. Unambiguously, how much has changed in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty since he ascended the throne?

From being an old man with gray hair to now being a mixed bag of black and white, he knows it well even if he is not a fool.

Yang Yi stood among the crowd, listening to the surrounding speech, bowed her head and remained silent.

"By the way, didn't Ms. Yang and the Queen Mother used to be close friends in the boudoir? I really envy others."

The lady next to her opened her mouth to talk to Yang Yi.

Yang Yi could only forcefully smile, not knowing how to respond.

Shen Yi changed his clothes, and started admiring chrysanthemums when he came back.

Looking around, Shen Yi saw Yang Yi not far away, and asked Cheng Yan to call her over. Shen Yi had never found a suitable opportunity to tell Yang Yi about Miss Wang before, but this time was just right.

Yang Yi was brought over by Cheng Yan and greeted Shen Yi, Shen Yi looked at the reserved Yang Yi in front of him, "Why did Yanyan have a relationship with me?"

"Your Majesty has long been different from the past, and the courtiers dare not go beyond."

Yang Yi bowed her head, her words were alienated inside and out.

Shen Yi looked at Yang Yi puzzled, Yang Yi in her impression shouldn't be like this, when did their identities become a barrier?

Shen Yi didn't speak, Yang Yi also remained silent, the atmosphere froze for a moment, just at this moment, the palace man's voice interrupted the silence between the two.

"The Emperor is here!"

Shen Yi was a little surprised, Qin Su had a lot of political affairs today, he should still be in the imperial study, why did he come to the imperial garden?

Everyone got up and saluted, Shen Yi stood where he was, and as expected, he saw Qin Su walking over, passing the crowd, and walking to his side.

Qin Su came over and held Shen Yi's hand, something was put into Shen Yi's hand, the two looked at each other, and Shen Yi accepted it tacitly.

Behind everyone, Shen Yi looked at Qin Su, "Why is Your Majesty coming here when you are free?"

"Shouldn't I come to see the queen?" Qin Su didn't reply seriously, he laughed and laughed with Shen Yi, and then looked at Yang Yi next to him, "Miss Yang is there too?"

"The courtiers see Your Majesty."

Yang Yi bowed her head in salute.

"No courtesy, no courtesy, since Anping entered the palace, there have been fewer contacts with friends outside the palace, and Ms. Yang has to come to the palace more to accompany Anping to relieve boredom."

Qin Su naturally didn't know what happened just now, and was still being polite to Yang Yi.

Regarding Qin Su's words, Yang Yi could only reluctantly respond with a smile.

When Qin Su came, naturally no one would move closer to Shen Yi so blindly to make room for the two of them.

The two walked in front to admire the chrysanthemums, and everyone kept a distance to follow behind. Shen Yi asked Qin Su again in a low voice, "Why did you come here?"

"Jingo is here."

Qin Su also whispered back to Shen Yi's words.

Shen Yi was taken aback for a moment, then realized, "Fuliang Fifth Prince?"

"Ah."

Qin Su grabbed a petal casually, "It was through Qin Yun that they wanted to come to see me, but I avoided it, and I had to hang out with them for two days, delaying the time, and making a promise too quickly would easily make them suspicious."

Shen Yi now understands, Qin Su is just pretending to show Qin Yun and Jin Ge.

"Okay, it's good that you have made plans for these things, so now... just enjoy the flowers?"

Shen Yi knew that Qin Su had already made countless preparations with his father and other ministers during this period, so he was not worried.

"What kind of flowers do you admire? How can flowers be as beautiful as the queen's."

Qin Su leaned into Shen Yi's ear and whispered something, successfully making Shen Yi's earlobes turn red.

Gazing at Qin Su powerlessly, Shen Yi now has the heart to drive Qin Su away, "Speak up, there are so many people."

Qin Su was happy to see Shen Yi's appearance, and squeezed an inch into Shen Yi's side, "So what, we're officially married, and worshiped the ancestors of the world, so it's not enough to just whisper a few words?"

Shen Yi saw Qin Su's bad intentions, so he had no choice but to give her a look and give up.

Because of Qin Su's arrival, the autumn banquet ended early. On the way back to Yong'an Palace, Shen Yi looked at Qin Su who was in a good mood beside him, and couldn't help laughing, "What makes Zixun so happy?"

"I don't know," Qin Su held Shen Yi in his arms openly, and lightly pecked Shen Yi's forehead, "Anping said why am I so happy?"

"I see you, you seem to be insane." Shen Yi smiled and avoided Qin Su, and nodded Qin Su's forehead.

"It's broken." After a while, Shen Yi remembered something, "I wanted to take this opportunity to hand over that Miss Wang to Yang Yi, but I didn't want you to interrupt me and forget about it. I saw that Yang Yi seemed to me...different from before, with a lot more life."

Qin Su listened, with a dark look in his eyes, and put his arms around Shen Yi, "Anping, I didn't want to tell you about this, for fear that you would feel uncomfortable, but the matter has come to this point, there is no need to hide it."

"What's the matter?"

As soon as Shen Yi heard what Qin Su said, he knew it was not a good thing.

"It's like this. Duke Yang's mansion may not... be glorious for long. The extravagance and inaction of the children in the mansion are already obvious. Duke Yang's mansion is going into decline. Qiu Luan once reported to me the current situation of the major families in Beijing. Among them, Duke Yang's mansion The shops and farms under his name have been unable to make ends meet, and even since last year, they have been quietly becoming sellers, and now the entire Duke Yang's mansion has no successors, all relying on the support of Duke Yang and Mrs. Yang."

There are four major families leading in Beijing, General Yu’s Mansion, Prime Minister Shen’s Mansion, Jin State’s Mansion, and finally Yang Guo’s Mansion. Among the four major families, Yang Guo’s Mansion was the weakest. Now Qin Su is in the top position, and the other three are all It is thriving day by day, and has even begun to cultivate successors. The Yu Mansion has Yu Chen, the Shen Mansion has Shen Qing, the Duke of Jin's mansion has Jin Shaoyun, and only the Duke of Yang's mansion.
