Be an emperor from drawing cards

Chapter 26 Self-strategy, the most deadly! 【For collection, for follow-up】

Holding the tea set in both hands, Gao Lishi came to the door of the imperial study and called softly:
"Master Hou!"

"come in."

Zhao Yu's voice came from inside the door.

After receiving permission, Gao Lishi opened the door, put the tea set on the table, and said softly:

"Master Hou, this servant heard some news from outside, and I don't know whether to say it or not..."

"Go ahead."

Zhao Yu spoke directly.

Gao Lishi turned his head and waved to the maids standing around, and everyone retreated knowingly.

"Master Marquis, the general has returned to the court, and all the officials in the court have gone to greet him outside the Zhuque Gate."

As Gao Lishi spoke, he took a peek at Zhao Yu's expression. When he saw that Zhao Yu's expression was as usual, he felt relieved.

In the past two days, the current Marquis of An Guo and the future Emperor of Chu gradually began to put himself in high regard. He walked on thin ice in everything he did, and he must not make any omissions, otherwise he would be knocked back to his original form if he was not careful.

He never wanted to go back to the Xuanniao Pavilion and be a little yellow door with no background at his beck and call.

"The general is the pillar of the country, and he is also the minister appointed by the late emperor to assist the country. He has made great achievements in quelling the barbaric chaos, and it is natural for all the officials to come out to welcome him."

Zhao Yu picked up the tea cup, took a sip and said.

"Master Hou said..."

Unable to figure out what the man in front of him meant for a while, Gao Lishi could only echo.

Zhao Yu put down the teacup, flicked his sleeves, looked at the restless Gao Lishi, and said calmly:
"Here here, there are not many rules. There are only four words: try your best. Lux, I know you are a smart person and know what you should and shouldn't do. You have done a good job these days, serving me. Hou Ye has done his best, and this secret book should be regarded as a reward for you."

With that said, Zhao Yu took out an ancient book with a faint fragrance of ink from his sleeve and placed it in front of Gao Lishi.

Gao Lishi shuddered when he saw the four big words on the cover. When he turned it over and took a rough look at it, his breathing became heavier.

He didn't come from a small family. His Feng family was also a nobleman in the south in his early years. He also received systematic education when he was young, and he understood how precious a book of martial arts secrets that can allow people to cultivate to the ninth rank is.

If this secret book were put into the martial arts world, a bloody storm would be inevitable.

Moreover, it seems that this secret book is specially compiled for people with disabilities like them. It is not difficult to practice by yourself, you just need to follow the step by step.

"My servant has thanked Lord Hou, and is willing to burn my brains out for Lord Hou, and will not hesitate to do so!"

As Gao Lishi said this, he knelt down to Zhao Yu like he was pushing a mountain of gold over a jade pillar.

Although Gao Lishi considers himself not a very smart person, he is far smarter than the average person.

This kind of martial arts cheats directly reaching the ninth rank is one of the few in the entire Great Chu arsenal.

And his new master took out a copy without saying a word and rewarded it to him without any hesitation. This shows that he does not value this secret book that is regarded as a treasure by people in the martial arts world.

The only explanation is that in the hands of this Marquis, there are more than one martial arts secret books of the same level, so there is such an attitude.

Thinking deeper, don't say that the person in front of you is a Marquis, even if he is a prince, he still can't come up with such a secret book...

Thinking of this, Gao Lishi felt a chill in his heart and did not dare to think about it further.

But the only thing he can be sure of is that the person standing behind the young marquis is definitely not the general of the auxiliary country!

Because if the general of the auxiliary country had such a secret book in his hands, it would be impossible for him not to have a ninth-grade master under his command!
Zhao Yu didn't know that Gao Lishi had thought about so much in the blink of an eye. Even if he really knew it, he would only sigh in his heart that self-defense is the most deadly.

"Get up and do things for me with peace of mind. You will benefit from it in the future."

Zhao Yu raised his hand slightly, signaling Gao Lishi to stand up.

"These days, you should pay more attention in the palace. Those little Huangmen with good aptitude and good brains should have more contact with them when they have time."

"Yes, I will do my best to handle it."

No heavy hammer was needed to beat the drum, and Gao Lishi understood Zhao Yu's meaning almost instantly, which was to let him secretly win over some small yellow gates.

Although the great eunuchs hold high positions in the palace, they still need the small yellow gates below to do things. If they can be brought over, the movements of the other eunuchs in the palace can be known in advance.

Talking to smart people is easy.

Zhao Yu expressed great satisfaction with Gao Lishi's success.

Opening the system panel, seeing the loyalty in Gao Lishi's attribute column soaring from 85 to 98, Zhao Yu felt even happier.

This Gao Lishi has a loyal character, that is, as long as he doesn't do anything that angers others, his loyalty will not decrease, unlike Shi A's utilitarian character, who will lose his loyalty if he does not reward him for his merits.

…………

With the return of Huang Jingming, the general of Fuguo, the countdown to the new emperor's ascension to the throne has officially entered.

According to the practice of the Great Chu, after the first emperor passed away to the west, the body was put into the Zi Palace, and moved to the Fengxiang Palace on the west side of the imperial city. After [-] days of incense, the body was buried in the Jingshan Emperor's Mausoleum.

There is a special secret medicine in the palace that can ensure that the body will not rot and deteriorate within thirty days at normal temperature.

When Huang Jingming went to court the next day after returning to the court, he first made an invitation to enter the palace, hoping to see the remains of the late emperor, and then urged the officials and the queen mother. Now the hearts of the people in the capital were floating, hoping that the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor would be held tomorrow. , to stabilize people's hearts.

Facing the powerful returning general, the Empress Dowager Xuande had no choice but to hold her nose and agree no matter how reluctant she was.

In Fengxiang Palace, Zhao Yu, who was keeping vigil for the late emperor, finally met this powerful general who supported the country.

His appearance is not like his cousin, who is as tall and mighty as the Zhijinwu, but as elegant as a teacher, with gentle eyebrows and gorgeous hair on his temples, which makes people feel good, but at the same time faintly awes him from the bottom of his heart Come.

This is the aura and coercion brought by being in a high position all year round.

However, in front of the late emperor's coffin, one should not speak casually.

Therefore, the two just looked at each other, nodded to each other, and then paid homage to the late Emperor Zi Palace, toasted wine, offered incense, and finally cried a few times to fulfill their duties as ministers.

Looking at An Guohou who was crying next to him, Huang Jingming curled his lips in an imperceptible manner.

Little fox, you pretend to be more like me than me!

Seemingly aware of the gaze of the old man beside him, Zhao Yu gave a slight snort in his heart.

Old fox, I am crying about my biological parents who were assassinated. Who are you crying about?
After crying, the two stood up, looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

…………

The ninth day of September, the Double Ninth Festival, is auspicious.

On this day, the new emperor ascended the throne, and everyone celebrated.

Before dawn, Zhijinwu Huang Wenbo mobilized a thousand black wolf guards who had gathered again to guard the gates of the imperial city, and the Imperial Guards were responsible for guarding the Forbidden Palace.

Since the Renzong Dynasty, the emperor of Chu State has held a ceremony of ascension to the throne at Chengtian Gate, and announced to the world that from today onwards, he will inherit the destiny of Great Chu.

On this day, before dawn, Zhao Yu was awakened by Gao Lishi.

Is this day finally coming?

Looking at the slightly bright sky outside the window, Zhao Yu subconsciously clenched his fists.
