After The Divorce, I Became the Favorite of the Powerful Ministers - Chapter 665

  Chapter 665

   Xi Rong and Yue Lu recovered from their injuries, while Xiao Hanzheng took people to counter-siege Ge’s border town.

  Because of the timely arrival of the rescue, the casualties of the female soldiers led by Xi Rong were not serious, as were the soldiers led by Xiao Yuanshi before.

   They were reintegrated by Xiao Hanzheng and guarded on the border to prevent the new marshal sent by Ge Guo from suddenly raiding the border.

   Soon Beicheng and Jingcheng received news of Daliang’s successive victories.

  The people on the northern side are the happiest. The army guards the border, which is equivalent to guarding everyone’s safety.

   Shi Qingluo fell from the sky and flew into the city, and asked the old immortal to take action to clean up the enemy with a small black ball, which was even more mysterious.

   In addition to this, Xiao Hanzheng temporarily took command, saved Daliang’s defeat one after another, and defeated Ge Guo’s army.

   Now instead, he is besieging Ge’s commander in the border town, which is very exciting.

  The same is true here in the capital, I was excited to hear the news.

  The emperor was greatly relieved when he received news from the border one after another.

   On this day, I received the news that Xiao Hanzheng led the army to besiege the border city.

   It happened that the ministers in the court, King Yi and several princes were all discussing matters in the imperial study.

The    emperor shared the news with them. .

   then sighed, “I didn’t expect that the champion of my army is also a good leader of the army, and the border town of the country of Ge should be able to be won in a few days.”

The    emperor was obviously in a good mood.

  The ministers were naturally happy when they heard the news.

   This is a much better ending than they imagined, especially the Minister of War and the Minister of Household, who were dying of sorrow before.

  The Ministry of Accounts did not deliberately want to hold military spending, but there is really not much money in the treasury right now.

  Daliang didn’t have many years in the founding of the country. Before that, he always adopted the policy of light corvée and some tax exemptions, and the money collected was not as much as in the previous dynasty.

   Many places were hit by disasters before, and a lot of money was spent on disaster relief.

  In addition, when the first emperor was in power, the capital and the imperial tombs were rebuilt a lot, and the Ministry of Household really lived with his trousers and belts.

   Fortunately, the canning workshop on the other side of the border opened, which relieved a lot.

The    Liuli Workshop was the emperor’s private treasury, so even if the household was jealous, he didn’t dare to make up his mind.

   And the money from Liuli’s profit was actually used by the emperor to build a large ship and a water army.

  The country of Ge suddenly invaded. They have already tried their best to prepare for the military expenses, but the time of the war cannot be prolonged, otherwise the food and grass will not be supplied.

   And the treasures from the previous dynasty sent by King Yi were taken out by the emperor earlier to build the cement road from the capital to the various prefectures.

   Another part was used to buy food and sent to northern Xinjiang, which relieved some pressure on the Ministry of Households.

  The money allocated by the Ministry of Households is limited, and the Ministry of War has no way to get people to prepare more armaments and materials to send to the front line.

   Now hearing that Xiao Hanzheng has completely stabilized the battle situation, and instead turned a disadvantage into an advantage, the two ministers are the happiest.

  The Minister of War said with a smile: “I didn’t expect the champion to fight so well, he’s really a general.”

  Hubu Shangshu said: “It would be better if Master Xiao could end the war between the two countries as soon as possible, otherwise our food and grass can only be supported for three months at most.”

   Liang Yulin said confidently: “Don’t worry, with what I know about Han Zheng, the war should be over within two months.”

   He glanced at the two ministers, “Otherwise, we have to wait for your support. I don’t know how many our soldiers will die.”

   The two ministers said: “…” If you don’t attack people like this, they also want to support them, but they also need to have money and materials!

  Hubu Shangshu was more slick, and said with a smile: “Yes, this is indeed the credit of Master Xiao.”

   He likes officials who can help some of the household’s worries.

   And Xiao Hanzheng has no conflict of interest with him, he even has some ideas, and he doesn’t mind saying something nice.

   Liang Yulin looked proud, “Of course, that is the son of this king.”

  People present: “…” King Yi is really enough, is his surname Xiao?

   However, as long as King Yi married Xiao Hanzheng’s mother, Xiao Hanzheng was indeed his son.

   With such an excellent pair of sons and daughters-in-law, they couldn’t help but envy King Yi.

   So they looked at King Yi with sourness.

   Liang Yulin’s smile deepened when he saw this, and he said: “Don’t be jealous and envy this king, after all, this is something you can’t envy.”

  People present: “…” I didn’t expect you to be such a King Yi, what about the banished immortal? Why is it so mundane now.

   This is so awkward, it’s so bad to beat!

   Then Liang Yulin said to the emperor: “Brother Huang, if my son defeats Ge Guo this time, let him take his family back to Beijing to receive the reward, and by the way, I will solve the lifelong affairs of the emperor.”

   Those present: “…” They felt that the second half of what King Yi said was the point.

The    emperor also felt that the last sentence was the point.

   He laughed and said, “What’s the hurry? Mr. Kong won’t run away again.”

  Liang Yulin touched his nose, “You’re a hungry man, but you’re a hungry man!”

  The emperor said angrily: “I don’t know who ran away when they mentioned getting married, but now I know they are in a hurry.”

   Liang Yulin said confidently: “It’s not because I didn’t meet the right person.”

The    emperor also knew that his younger brother was an old tree blooming, so he didn’t bother about it.

   He looked serious, “Are you sure that Xiao Hanzheng can defeat the army of Ge Guo within two months?”

   Liang Yulin also became serious, “My brother thinks it’s fine.”

   “Whether it’s the manifestation of my daughter-in-law’s old fairy master or my son’s successive victories, the morale of our army is high.”

   “Let’s not say that Ge Guo’s morale has plummeted, and he can’t choose a more powerful coach. This determines that failure is inevitable.”

  The emperor listened to his flamboyant words, and said in tears: “People are not your son and daughter-in-law.”

   Liang Yulin said with a smile: “It’s not a matter of time.”

  The eldest son and daughter-in-law really gave him a long face.

  Emperor: “…” He felt that his younger brother looked too bad.

  Other people actually didn’t expect King Yi to have such a side. In the past, he used to look like he was about to become an immortal and didn’t care about the world.

   They couldn’t help but wonder what the Kong family was like, to be able to pull King Yi down from the mortal world.

   And I heard that Xiao Yuanshi had regretted it for a long time, and wanted to find Kong to get back together, but was rejected.

   But it shouldn’t be too bad if you think about it, otherwise you won’t be able to raise an excellent son like Xiao Hanzheng.

  Xi Xinheng said with a smile, “If it is as predicted by King Yi, then Master Xiao will have made a great contribution.”

   “Master Xiao’s performance in Beijiang is very good. I feel that there is no need to temporarily replace him. He is qualified to directly serve as the prefect of Beicheng.”

  Although we all know that the temporary generation is basically set, but if it is not settled for one day, Xiao Hanzheng’s grade will not be able to rise for a day.

   Their family and the Xiao family have always been on good terms, and of course they have to help Xiao Hanzheng to determine the credit first.

   When he said this, the Liang family and the Fei family also stood up and agreed.

The emperor    was very optimistic about Xiao Hanzheng. According to the current situation, he was indeed his lucky general.

   “When the war between the two countries is over, let’s raise his rank.”

   I just hope that Xiao Hanzheng won’t let him down in the future, then he will definitely not be able to treat each other badly.

   After he finished speaking, he smiled and took out a letter from the border.

   “The veterans in the frontier have all written a letter, asking me to keep Xiao Hanzheng in the northern border and continue to be the head coach, saying that he is a waste of talent if he doesn’t fight, what do you think?”
