Dajin royal family

Chapter 48 The King of Qi
"Your Majesty, why don't you let the prince share your majesty's worries?" Gao Xun immediately persuaded.

Rewarding the three armies is not as simple as talking about it, it is a job to buy people's hearts, especially this big victory, whoever can be the chief officer of rewarding the three armies will definitely win the favor of the three armies.Generally speaking, this kind of work is entrusted to the heir by the emperor. How did he become the king of Qi, and where does he put the prince?

The emperor sighed, and said: "The crown prince is not feeling well, and it is not suitable for a long journey. It is better for the king of Qi to handle it."

Gao Xun was stunned, he couldn't refute this, Prince Zhao's obese body was indeed a hidden danger, even walking was a problem, let alone traveling long distances to Jiyin County.

The emperor thought of something, and said: "Ling Dai Wang's son will go with Qi Wang."

Yu Shiji sat on his knees and quickly wrote down the decree with a pen.

Qi Wangfu.

Jiang Chengxiao pulled the reins, the horse stopped and snorted.

When the guards in front of Prince Qi's Mansion saw Jiang Chengxiao and his party, they immediately surrounded him, and one of the leaders shouted: "Bold, don't dismount in front of Prince Qi's Mansion!"

Jiang Chengxiao glanced at Nan Jiyun, who immediately understood, and said loudly: "Presumptuous, my master is the son of the Dai Wang, and he came to Qi Wang's mansion to discuss with Qi Wang about rewarding the army, and he didn't go in to report!"

Hearing this, the Qi Wang family eased their attitude and bowed their hands, "It turns out that he is the son of the acting king, and the villain was rude, so let's go in and report."

After speaking, the family will immediately turn around and enter the palace.

Jiang Chengxiao's eyes were calm, and he remembered that he had received the emperor's decree a few hours ago, asking him to accompany King Qi to Jiyin County to reward the army.

According to his guess, this should be the emperor's compensation for him.

The errand of rewarding the army is a good job to please people, after all, it is to give benefits to others.

But what he didn't understand was why he was accompanying the King of Qi. Shouldn't the prince be the one who rewarded the army? Could it be that the emperor really didn't like the prince?

The current emperor has only three sons, among which the crown prince and the king of Qi are both the sons of the empress, and the other youngest son is the son of concubine Xiao.

The reason why the emperor didn't like the crown prince was that it had something to do with the crown prince's obese body. Everyone in the aristocratic circle in Chang'an knew that the crown prince was extremely obese and ate a lot every day.

There were even rumors that the prince could hardly even walk, and had to be supported by his servants to walk.

The emperor didn't like this "semi-disabled" prince, but preferred the "prosperous and handsome" King Qi who was like himself.

It's just that due to some special reasons, the prince is still the prince, and the king of Qi is still the king of Qi.

Prince Qi's Mansion, study room.

King Qi Jianghang is discussing with his mastermind Huangfu Jia about rewarding the army this time.

"Your Highness, His Majesty asked you to reward the army, not only because of your fancy, but also because of the crown prince's health. Your Highness must not be complacent about it." Huangfujia said.

King Qi Jianghang touched his short beard, "Sir, are you worrying too much, my father has entrusted me with a heavy responsibility recently."

Huangfu Jia persuaded with serious expression: "Your Highness, remember not to think like this. The crown prince has nothing to do with morality, and most of the people in the court praise him. Your Highness, when you go to reward the army this time, remember to make friends with the soldiers of the three armies. Treat people."

King Qi nodded slightly, "I remember what the master said."

At this time, the general's voice came from outside the study, "His Royal Highness, the king's son came here to discuss the matter of rewarding the army."

Hearing this, the King of Qi and Huangfujia looked at each other, Huangfujia said: "The Daiwang defeated the Turks in the north, and this time he returned to the court, he will definitely be among the three princes, and he will be a counselor for the government affairs of the court. Your Highness needs to make friends with the Daiwangfu."

"That's right, the acting king has made great achievements, and this king should do so. If he can get the support of the acting king, this king will not only be of great help in the court, but also in the army."

King Qi's eyes shone with ambition, "That wild pig, why should I overwhelm this king in the future."

Huangfu Jia sighed slightly in his heart, "Your Highness, the important matter has not been accomplished, so be cautious in your words and deeds. Don't be too hasty in dealing with the acting prince. The subordinates have heard that he has been in poor health and has been closed all year round. He must be a bit weird, and his personality may be a bit extreme. , Your Highness should be more patient when making friends with him."

King Qi laughed, and said indifferently: "Don't worry, Mr. Dai Wang's son is only a son who has not reached the crown. Could it be that this king can't even take down such a child?"

"I'm going to ask my subordinates to find out about his hobbies. When the time comes, I will give him some good things and walk around with him often. I think we will get close to him naturally."

Huangfu Jia frowned, and said: "Your Highness, don't be careless. The acting king is the king of England. Presumably, the son of the acting king is not a naive child. Your Highness must not be too impatient, otherwise it will make him vigilant."

King Qi waved his hand, "Sir, you are smart. But, you are too cautious."

After speaking, King Qi turned around and strode away.Huangfu Jia just wanted to remind him that this generation prince escaped from Qi County, so he should not take it lightly.

Prince Qi's Mansion, the living room.

Jiang Chengxiao closed his eyes and knelt on the cushion, a cup of fragrant tea was placed on the table in front of him, and a serving maid was kneeling beside him.Nan Jiyun stood motionless behind Jiang Chengxiao.

"Your Highness, please have some tea, Your Highness will be here soon." said the servant girl.

"Go down, you don't need to serve here." Jiang Chengxiao said lightly without opening his eyes.

The servant girl got up and saluted, then turned and left.When she just walked to the door, she bumped into the oncoming King Qi.

The maid suddenly knelt on the ground in fright, "Your Highness, please forgive me, Your Highness please forgive me."

A trace of hostility flashed in King Qi's eyes. Seeing Jiang Chengxiao standing up over there, he immediately flicked his sleeves and let the maid down.

"I have seen His Royal Highness King Qi." Jiang Chengxiao cupped his hands and saluted.

King Qi's appearance is indeed very similar to the current emperor, with a tall and straight figure, a handsome face, and a white satin embroidered dragon suit, which makes him look quite noble.

King Qi grabbed Jiang Chengxiao's hand with a smile, and pulled him to sit down together, "Your Majesty, you are welcome, you and I are blood relatives."

He and Jiang Chengxiao are indeed blood relatives to a certain extent, not only the patrilineal blood, but also the matrilineal blood all come from the same family.

With a sincere smile on his face, Jiang Chengxiao withdrew his palm calmly, "I have always wanted to see His Royal Highness King Qi, but I was not in good health, so I delayed for a long time. If it wasn't for His Majesty's imperial decree this time, I really don't know when I can meet His Highness." Acquaintance."

King Qi said frankly: "Don't worry about it, there will be opportunities in the future, this time you and I will go to reward the army together, and we will be able to drink and talk happily on the way, and express our thoughts."

Jiang Chengxiao still smiled sincerely, "His Royal Highness Su Wen is quite similar to His Majesty, and it is indeed so when I saw him today."

Hearing this, King Qi suddenly laughed, and patted Jiang Chengxiao's shoulder with one hand, "It's all a joke of the father, and it can't be true. How can this king compare to the accident of the father."

The smile on Jiang Chengxiao's face was even wider, "I have no experience in rewarding the army this time, so I hope His Highness will give you some pointers."

King Qi said boldly: "Of course, you will follow me when the time comes. Just this time, go out and play, don't worry about it, everything is on my side."

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxiao was overjoyed immediately, cupped his hands and said, "Then I can rest assured, thank you Your Highness."

King Qi smiled complacently. How could this generational prince have such an extreme personality as Huangfu Jia said, and he was obviously easy to deal with, and he was very righteous.
