Taiji Hall.

After many days, Jin Zhao finally went to court.

He died unfortunately in battle before, but then came back to life strangely, causing a lot of uproar. He didn't want to be resurrected, but his temperament changed drastically.

From a bloody general in the past to a playboy who only knows how to eat, drink and enjoy himself.

His matter... can be said to be the biggest topic of conversation among people in the capital city recently.

Therefore, when he went to the palace, he attracted the attention of many people.

The father and son walked to the gate of the hall and were about to part ways. Cui Fengzhi bumped his arm with his arm without a trace, and lowered his head and whispered: "Restrain me later, don't be too serious."

After speaking, he walked to the queue of civil servants, Jin Zhao's mouth slightly curved, and walked to the queue of military officers.

As soon as he stood up, the minister next to him whispered to him: "General Cui, your position...is not here."

Cui Jinzhao pretended to be confused and said, "Isn't this empty? Isn't it my place?"

The minister was stunned for a moment, then silently pointed to the empty seat in the front row.

Only then did Jin Zhao suddenly realize, "So I was there, thank you very much." He did not forget to smile and pat the minister on the shoulder, and walked forward.

For this little episode, some people always noticed it, and when they saw it, they all shook their heads silently.

"It seems that General Cui has really lost his memory, he doesn't even know where he should stand."

"That's right, when I went to the palace today, my whole temperament is different from before. The frivolous appearance of a whole dude, how can there be the iron bones of before."

"It seems that the rumors are true. General Cui was born a hero, with extraordinary talents, but he never thought that... he would eventually disappear from everyone."

"That's right, I heard that he hangs out in brothels all day long, and the mansion also raises a lot of women..."

...

Although their discussion was not loud, Jin Zhao heard it clearly. He turned a deaf ear and walked to his place, and looked at a place unconsciously.

Shen Li wore a dark blue court dress today, and his complexion has recovered a lot. It seems that the peerless and proud person from before has returned, making people unable to look away for a while.

Shen Li seemed to be aware of that gaze, raised his eyes, glanced at him lightly, then moved his eyes away, his face was indifferent, and he didn't make any eye contact with him.

Jin Zhao secretly said in his heart, yo, the acting skills are not bad, so now we start substituting?

After waiting for a while, Emperor Xuanhui went to the hall, glanced around, and finally fell on Jin Zhao.

Then he looked away again, dealing with today's court affairs.

Jin Zhao lost interest in listening and was about to fall asleep when Emperor Xuanhui called his name.

"Cui Aiqing, I am very pleased to see that you are able to go to court now!" Emperor Xuanhui laughed.

Jin Zhao cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, I'm well."

"That's good. You made great contributions to me, Great Liang, before. If you want any reward, feel free to ask for it."

Jin Zhao glanced at Cui Fengzhi's direction, and said in an extremely casual tone: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, if you give me the reward... I will leave it to my father. I don't have anything to ask for, as long as... I can spend my days at leisure."The implication is that you don't want to be nosy, don't assign him any more tasks.

Hearing these words in the ears of all the ministers, they felt that he had become unambitious now, his former complacency had disappeared, and he still had military merits on his body, which he did not make good use of, and only wanted to enjoy himself.

"This..." Emperor Xuanhui looked at him, and there was a moment of surprise in his eyes, and then he continued: "Aiqing is indifferent to fame and wealth, but if I don't give you rewards, my heart is not at ease."

He also glanced at Cui Fengzhi, whose head was hanging so low that he couldn't see his face, and said: "I will give The Marquis of Huaiyuan a certain reward, and as for you, General Cui, you will be the first-rank official, and you will also be given the command of the Imperial Forest Army....”

As soon as Emperor Xuanhui's words fell, there was almost an uproar in the court, and the Imperial Forest Army...

Previously, Cao Jin served in the Imperial Forest Army. Although he has not been promoted yet, he is already recognized as the commander. However, Cao Jin is out of control now, and the ministers have also discussed who will take over, but they never thought... This power is still in power.It fell on Cui Jinzhao's head.

Jin Zhao was also a little surprised by this decision, what the hell is this dog emperor planning?It stands to reason that the dog emperor should look down on him very much, and even gave him such a reward, could it be... flattery?

"Cui Aiqing, the rights I have given you, you don't need to inform me of any future decisions. You are allowed to kill first and play later." Emperor Xuanhui added another sentence.

Cui Jinzhao: ...

This is indeed flattering without a doubt.

But...it may not be impossible...

"Your Majesty, please think again, your reward is too generous!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, General Cui has already commanded Xiaoqi Camp, if he takes over the Imperial Forest Army again, I'm afraid...it's inappropriate."

...

Although he has made great achievements before, this reward is too generous for the ministers.

Originally thought that everyone would not approve of Emperor Xuanhui's appointment, but at this moment, Cao Zhongqian said: "The old minister thinks that the emperor is wise."

All the ministers turned their gazes to him, and they all knew that Cao Zhongqian had always been on the opposite side of Cui Jinzhao before, but now he actually...agrees with the emperor's opinion, isn't this... messed up?

"General Cui has made great achievements this time, and almost lost his life. The veteran feels...he can afford these rewards."

Jin Zhao glanced at the old fox, really, in order to win him over, he really spent a lot of money, and he can even say such words against his will.

Regarding Cao Zhongqian's words, Shen Li, who had been standing aside all the time, also looked sideways slightly, looking at him with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.

"Ninth Brother, what do you think?" Emperor Xuanhui pondered for a while, then turned the conversation to Shen Li.

After Shen Li came back to his senses, he said indifferently: "I also think it's wrong. Although General Cui has made great achievements, there has never been a precedent for one general commanding two armies throughout the ages. And...if so, does the emperor feel at ease?"

It is too dangerous for the emperor to entrust all the soldiers and horses to one person. Emperor Xuanhui will not understand this truth, but now he is doing this...

"I... believe in General Cui's character." Emperor Xuan Hui's eyes flashed a wave, and he looked at Jin Zhao fixedly, with obvious temptation in his eyes.

"Only relying on your trust? This reason is a bit untenable. Throughout the ages, how many ministers with heavy armies have held too much self-esteem, leading to unnecessary consequences. These...should not be reminded by ministers." Shen LiAnswer the words.

As soon as the words fell, Jin Zhao said: "I don't like to hear His Highness Li Wang's words. Why do you have to pre-determine things that haven't happened yet? And how would you know that I will support myself, since His Majesty trusts meMe, why should I be as ignorant as those people."

"Anyone can say what they say, but how many people actually do it?"

"This is Li Wang's prejudice against me!"

Shen Li stopped arguing with him, but shifted his gaze to Emperor Xuan Hui, and said lightly: "Your Majesty, please think twice."

Just now the two confronted each other almost as if no one else was there. They knew that the two had occasional quarrels, but they never thought about it. The moment they went to court together, they started to fight again.
