Wuxia: Plays Qin Shi Huang at the beginning

Chapter 72: Mu Nihuang, Celebration Banquet

A few days after Zhu Houzhao returned to the capital, Mu Nihuang dealt with some matters in Yuezhou, and together with the general Meng Tian, he led his subordinates back to Beijing to restore his life.

Defeating the Mongol army, the merits of these two men spread throughout the court.

The hero of Daming! Daming’s heavy minister!

Therefore, Zhu Houzhao specially held a celebration banquet for the two.

In order to show honor and favor, the celebration banquet was held in the Qianqing Palace, which shows the high status of the two in Zhu Houzhao’s heart.

In the golden hall, dominated by the imperial throne of the Dragon Court, the banquet under it is divided into two columns, both lined up, stacked on top of each other bowls of delicacies and court wine, dazzling, the banquet has been lined up outside the hall, and the end is extremely grand.

Groups of eunuchs and palace maids enthusiastically shuttled back and forth, and the mighty guards were quietly guarding the sidelines.

At this time, most of the courtiers had already gathered, and they were all in their seats in order of position, laughing and talking, and the topic was inseparable from the matter of Yuezhou’s great destruction of the Mongol cavalry, which was very lively.

A moment later.

Mu Nihuang, the lord of the Great County of Mu Wangfu, and Meng Tian, the lord of the Golden Fire Cavalry, entered, and Zhao Gao personally led them.

The woman’s appearance is absolutely beautiful, her eyebrows are full of pride, and she has a heroic spirit that does not let her eyebrows, while the man is rough and domineering, and the solemn murderous aura that has been in the battlefield for a long time surrounds the body, making people dare not force their eyes.

The entry of the two heroes caused a lot of commotion in the banquet, some people greeted the two respectfully, Mu Nihuang returned the salute lightly, but Meng Tian ignored it, and glared at people with his nostrils arrogantly, which made many people feel unhappy.

However, the identity and status of the people are there, and they have made great achievements, and no one dares to say anything.

Zhao Gao finally led the two to sit on the right side of the throne, the first and second seats, and then bid farewell to the two and walked through the corridor to the side hall.

In the side hall of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houzhao was wearing a dragon robe under the service of a maid, with an indifferent and cold face, and no joy or anger.

“Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is ill, saying that she is afraid that she will rush the emperor’s joy, and she will not come today. Chi Lian has also arranged to help in the dining room. Zhao Gao leaned over and respectfully reported.

“I know.”

After the last process of the dragon robe was completed, Zhu Houzhao turned his body half a circle, looked up and down in the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction.

“Is Zhu Lian coming?” He asked.

“When the slave just came to see His Majesty, I saw him from a distance leading people into the field, and they should have all been seated at this time, and all the courtiers and Concubine Mu and General Meng have also taken their seats, Your Majesty rest assured.” Zhao Gao said.

“Very good, let’s go!”

Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and walked out of the side hall, with Zhao Gao on his side, as well as large and small eunuchs and palace maidens, the battle was very large.

“The emperor has really changed drastically during this time! Rectify the cabinet, purge the court, and this time appoint General Meng and Concubine Mu to break through the 300,000 elite cavalry of Mongolia, in my opinion, it won’t be long before you can monopolize power! ”

“Li Gong said heavily, the Empress Dowager and the Shenhou are two mountains pressing on the emperor’s head, and they want to take power alone? How easy to say! ”

“Indeed, although the emperor has made meritorious achievements recently, the forces of his cronies are still too thin compared to the Empress Dowager Shenhou, and they are not as rich as their foundation!”

“This…. This is also….”

The discussion whispers of several officials can flow to the ears of the people next to them, which makes it possible for people nearby to hear it.

Liu Jian, the head of the cabinet, also heard it, and his face showed a look of displeasure, but he also felt that there was some truth in his heart.

After all, Zhu Houzhao has just emerged.

Compared with these two behemoths who have been entrenched in the court for a long time and are rooted in their cronies everywhere, they are still much thinner.

Thinking secretly, Liu Jian’s gaze was opposite Xie Qian, who was sitting opposite, and they each snorted coldly.

Xie Qian was the Empress Dowager’s person, although the relationship between the Shenhou faction and the emperor’s faction was not as tense as it was, but it was no better, and he agreed more with the discussion just now. If it weren’t for the Empress Dowager to maintain her position and keep Zhu Houzhao, this unworthy emperor would have been usurped and abolished long ago, where would it be today’s turn to celebrate the feast!!

The ministers gathered together, but their minds were different.

Zhu Houzhao held this celebration banquet is obviously to show his wings, show it to the Empress Dowager, and show it to Zhu Houzhao! Because he had just submitted to the Mu King Mansion of Yuezhou, and had moved the secret army to the bright side for the first time. There are many old ministers who can understand his heart, but they all feel that he is a young man showing off his strength to a strong adult, and it is not worth mentioning.

“The emperor has arrived!”

Zhao Gao, acting as a former imperial eunuch, opened his mouth to shout.

As the words fell, Zhu Houzhao, who was wearing a majestic dragon robe, also came to the throne of the Dragon Court in the Qianqing Palace.

“Wait for the emperor!”

“Wait for the emperor!”

Everyone avoided the feast and went to the open space in the center to salute.

“All Love Qing flat!”

“Your Majesty!”

Zhu Houzhao followed these boring but royal etiquette.

Immediately afterwards, the ministers returned to their seats.

The delicacies placed in front of Zhu Houzhao were obviously much better than those of Qunchen, followed by Mu Nihuang, Meng Tian, and then Zhu Zheng.

These are today’s big names.

Officials such as the cabinet, the Zhongshu Province, the Six Ministries, the Five Temples, and the General Administration Department are also ranked below.

“Today’s celebration banquet is for Meng Tian and Concubine Mu, and the two have made meritorious contributions to resisting the 300,000 cavalry of the Mongols! Hello, a cup to both of you! ”

After Zhu Houzhao said these official words, he picked up the exquisite and clear Nine Dragon Cup on the table and drank the glass of Chinese wine.

“Your Majesty!”

“Your Majesty!”

Meng Tian also drank the wine boldly, and Mu Nihuang did the same.

Looking at the spirited appearance of the three, Zhu Wan’s face gradually became gloomy, holding the wine glass with his big sleeve to block his gloomy expression, and when he put down the wine glass, his expression had returned to nature, and he was very powerful in cultivating qi for many years.

Behind Zhu Yan stood a young man in a goose yellow robe, tall and tall, and his appearance was handsome. However, this handsomeness was ruined by the three scars on his face, which added a bit of hideousness.

Zhu ignored Zhu Houzhao, who was talking to Zhao Gao, and felt very angry in his heart.

Especially when I saw Zhu Houzhao’s face!

The killers he sent out in Yuezhou actually did not succeed once! Even Zhi Duoxing missed and betrayed him, so that he had to activate the assassination of the dark son!

You must know that if the dark son once he starts, there is a risk of exposure, once exposed, then his efforts for so many years will be in vain, which is a huge loss!

Because every dark son is precious.

He couldn’t figure out how this sixteen-year-old boy could have such skills.

“Hmph, since you want to show off your wings, then I will rub your sharp qi, and also let you know what it is to be outside the world.”

Zhu Yan suddenly saw Gai Nie Weizhuang standing not far from Zhu Houzhao, and suddenly had a plan in his heart.

He knocked on the table, and Jing Wuyue, whose gaze wandered in the banquet, immediately withdrew his gaze and said respectfully: “Sir.” ”
