Chapter 305
Without further ado, Pei Jing explained everything that day, and began to prepare for the trip to Beijing.

Because Chen Miao was unwilling to part with him no matter what this time, and Yao'er also wanted to go to the capital, so she brought a lot of things in big and small bags.

Early the next morning, Pei Jing took Chen Miao and Yao'er to say goodbye to his family, and followed He Ruishan towards the capital.

This trip is not a tour of the mountains and rivers, so the itinerary for the three majors and one small one is quite tense.Yao'er eats and sleeps very simply along the way, but it must be the first time to travel far away, with her parents on the road, she doesn't feel very bitter, eats when hungry, sleeps when sleepy, and stares at the scenery with big eyes when she wakes up , I don't cry or make trouble, and I am very obedient.

With Yao'er, a live baby, along the way, the boring journey doesn't seem too lonely and boring.

Because they walked fast, they arrived in the capital in just six days.

He Ruishan arranged them in his residence in the capital. Although he hasn't come back for a long time, there are still two old servants who guard the courtyard and sweep the dust, so even if he comes back temporarily, the house will be clean and tidy.

After settling down the family and resting for another night, He Ruishan sent the written memorial to the palace early the next morning.

Both he and Pei Jing were foreign ministers, and they could not go to court without the emperor's will, and could only wait for the emperor's summons.

The decree came faster than they expected, less than half an hour after the memorial was delivered, the eunuch from the palace came to tell them, and the emperor asked them to go in and answer.

At this time, the morning court had not yet dispersed, and there were densely packed ministers of civil and military affairs standing on the left and right in the huge Golden Luan Hall.

He Ruishan is used to going to court, but he is not afraid of anything. Because of lack of official position, Pei Jing has an audience with Tianyan for the first time.

It's just that when he was in Beimo, the emperor, the princess and other ministers were not uncommon, and they were not afraid of anything. What's more, the young emperor in front of him was an old acquaintance with him, right?

The two kowtowed to the ground and shouted long live three times.

Xiao Yexuan said in a low voice: "Free from courtesy."

Pei Jing and He Ruishan stood up, but Pei Jing felt a little emotional.

Things are right and wrong!Back then, they had worked together in a shop, and in the blink of an eye, Xiao Yexuan had grown from a small and inconspicuous shop assistant to a high-ranking prince, and now he has become the king of a country.

Thinking back to myself back then, how could I have thought of these things!
Xiao Yexuan went straight to the point, and only asked about Pei Jing's affairs in Beimo. Pei Jing told the truth, how he entered Beimo, how he assassinated the emperor of Beimo, was rescued by the princess and stayed in Beimo, and how he found out about the people in Beimo. The conspiracy is to let the people of Rui Country slowly lose their labor power and the harm of resistance under the corrosion of this kind of tobacco shredded by the gods.

In the end, Pei Jing implored Xiao Yexuan to quickly seal up all Fushouju stores across the country, so that this kind of shredded tobacco could no longer be spread in Rui Country.

Xiao Yexuan nodded, and said in a clear voice: "As far as I know, this kind of smoke that fascinates the gods is very popular in the capital, and I am afraid that many of the ministers present also regard smoking this kind of smoke as a top priority. Do you understand now? Do you know what to do?"

The heads of all the ministers present were soaked in a layer of cold sweat, and they said in a panic: "I understand, immediately seal up all Fushouju."

Xiao Yexuan nodded: "It is my imperial decree that no one in the whole country, regardless of the army, civilians, or nobles, is allowed to smoke this kind of shredded tobacco. If you have smoked, give me a quick quit. Otherwise, if you find out, you will not be held accountable! I will let this Kind of thing, get out of the territory of Rui Country forever!"

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live!" All the ministers chanted loudly together.

After the morning court, Xiao Yexuan did not let Pei Jing and He Ruishan leave, but let them follow him to the imperial study.

After granting the seat, Xiao Yexuan laughed first: "Pei Jing, you have good luck everywhere you go, and even I will be jealous if you are lucky."

Pei Jing said embarrassingly: "The emperor has congratulated me. It is thanks to the help of a friend in Beimo that I escaped death and returned to Rui Country this time. Otherwise, even nine lives would not be enough for me."

Xiao Yexuan was silent for a while, and then said: "I know the person you mentioned, but since he has chosen his master, he can't use two things at once. If I want to send troops to attack Beimo in the future, I'm afraid he is still Our enemy, you must recognize this."

Pei Jing said in a low voice: "Yes, this minister understands."

Xiao Yexuan lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "I have heard about what you said, and I was looking for an opportunity to rectify it vigorously. It happened that you came back. You went to Beimo in person, and you are more concerned about this kind of thing. It is convincing, so what you said in the court today is much more useful than Zhenguang's order to ban it, Pei Jing, you have contributed a lot! Just say what reward you want!"

Pei Jing hurriedly said: "I am satisfied to be able to return to my homeland. Besides, the emperor rewarded my family and did not blame me for staying in Beimo. It is a great kindness. How can I Then ask for a reward!"

Xiao Yexuan laughed: "You understand it, but I still understand whether your merits and demerits are right or wrong. You have made great achievements this time, and you should be rewarded."

He thought for a while and said: "Your son is now a young master, you can't be too bad as a father, otherwise your son will look down on you as a father when he grows up? Let's do it, since Yao My son is already the Marquis of An Le, so I will make you a Duke of Sincerity and Righteousness, and will also make you a third-rank General of Valiant Cavalry!"

Pei Jing was startled, and hastily resigned: "How can a humble minister, He De, be worthy of this great responsibility?"

Xiao Yexuan smiled slightly: "If you don't fear the powerful, don't be fascinated by women, and treat money like dung and return to your homeland, these rewards should be yours! Sure enough, I saw the right person! You can be your general with peace of mind. !"

Seeing Xiao Yexuan's firm attitude, Pei Jing had no choice but to thank him.

At this moment, the eunuch came to report: "Your Majesty, the Empress has come to deliver desserts."

There was no expression of joy or anger on Xiao Yexuan's face, he just said lightly: "Then invite her in."

Pei Jing was secretly startled, empress?Could it be that Bai Lin was back then?

Pei Jing exchanged glances with He Ruishan, and they both bowed and said, "Since the Empress Empress is here, it's better for me to stay away."

Xiao Yexuan said with a half-smile: "No need, you are also acquaintances, there is nothing to avoid."

Pei Jing was puzzled, wondering whether Xiao Yexuan's words meant something else, at this moment, he heard a sound of footsteps, followed by a gust of fragrant wind, a woman in palace attire came slowly with a beautiful lacquer plate in her hand.
