Chapter 845: Occasionally Knowing How to Be Flexible

The South Vietnamese Emperor and his weird daughter were having a fuss at night. Sometimes they slept uncomfortably, sometimes they wanted someone to give them another blanket, and sometimes they didn't eat well. In short, they made a lot of requests, but no one paid him any attention. .

Although compared to the once luxurious and luxurious palace life, it is really the difference between heaven and hell now, but who allows them to commit suicide?

Even if you live a good life, you are still not satisfied with having a great country and a vast territory. Now you can only bring it upon yourself.

They only rested in Yu Kingdom for one day, and reorganized their army early the next morning. King Yu, along with the second and third princes and the ministers of Yu Kingdom, sent them all the way to the outside of the royal city. The mighty army accelerated and marched for another half month. They didn't arrive at Dongling Imperial City until the morning of the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month.

Ten thousand cavalry were stationed outside the city. Xuanyuan Yao and Xie Jin entered the palace alone to meet the saint. In the early morning, many people in the city had gotten up to work. The horses galloped through the streets of the imperial city and headed towards the palace.

Nan Xi and Rong Yu are going to court.

When a high-pitched and energetic shout sounded outside the palace: "Prince Yao, Mr. Xie has come to see you——"

The civil and military officials in the main hall fell silent for a moment.

"The heroes are back." Nan Xi smiled faintly, "Invite them into the palace."

The chamberlain conveyed the order, and then he saw two young men in military uniforms walking into the hall, with tall and majestic postures, and a more heroic look on their brows.

"My minister Xuanyuan Yao (Xie Jin) pays homage to Her Majesty the Queen. Long live, long live, long live!"

"Kowtow to the regent, may I live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years!"

Nan Xi looked at the two people in the hall, with a hint of smile on her face: "Prince Yao is indeed a master in using troops and strategizing. In just a few months, South Vietnam was completely defeated. I am very relieved."

Xuanyuan Yao felt a little guilty and said humbly: "Reporting to your Majesty, I should not be criticized for 'managing troops like a god'. It is true that the South Vietnamese army is too weak, and I am lucky."

"Sure enough, a hero comes from a boy."

"Prince Yao is too humble, but there is nothing wrong with a young man being humble. There will be room for greater excellence in the future."

"Your Majesty and the Regent are indeed right. Crown Prince Yao's character is truly top-notch. Compared with his military exploits, his humility, courtesy, and neither arrogance nor impatience are even more valuable."

Xuanyuan Yao lowered his eyebrows slightly, listening to the compliments from the ministers. He secretly thought that he had stayed with Xie Jin for a long time, and he had developed a thick skin. Otherwise, he would really be praised and praised like this. I dare not accept it calmly.

"Pingshen." Nan Xi said warmly, "Give me a seat."

Give me a seat?

The ministers fell silent.

It is unprecedented for such a pair of young people to be given seats in the main hall. In the past, only respected veterans could have this honor...

"I don't dare." Xuanyuan Yao quickly lowered his head, "I absolutely don't dare. Thanks to Her Majesty the Queen for your grace, I can just stand."

Xie Jin didn't say anything, but stood quietly beside Xuanyuan Yao.

"Prince Yao has made great achievements in the conquest of South Vietnam. Starting today, he will be granted the title of General of Hussars and will be given a general palace." Nan Xi said, turning to look at Rong Yu, "Which house in the imperial city is more suitable for Xuanyuan Yao?"

Rong Yu sat on one side and thought for a moment after hearing the words: "The Su family's house is not small in size, but it is suitable."

Xie Jin's eyebrows moved slightly. The Su family's house was indeed quite big, and it was not far from the Xie family...

"In that case, Master Mo." Nan Xi turned to look at the ministers, "Later, the Ministry of Industry sent someone to unseal the Su family's house and take good care of it, and repair it according to the requirements of Prince Yao. , strive to complete it as soon as possible so that General Hussar can move in as soon as possible. "

"I obey the decree."

"Xie Jin has worked hard to transport grain and grass all the way." Nan Xi smiled lightly, "Today is the Lantern Festival. I will let you two rest for a day and take the Nanyue monarchs and ministers to the prison first. You two and all the generals under your command will go to the palace tomorrow to report on your duties. I will organize a cleansing banquet for you, and all the meritorious ministers will be rewarded."

"I obey your order." Xie Jin bowed and thanked you, "Thank you for your grace."

Xuanyuan Yao lowered his head and asked, "Your Majesty, don't you want to meet the Emperor of South Vietnam?"

"Why are you seeing him?" Nan Xi smiled lightly, "Lock him up first. There is no need to see him as the king of subjugation. We will wait until the regent decides how to deal with him later."

"Yes." Xuanyuan Yao agreed, "The Emperor of Nanyue also has a twelve-year-old daughter who is unruly and willful, arrogant and domineering, with a violent temper... How does Your Majesty think we should deal with it?"

"Twelve years old?" Nan Xi pondered, "She's not that old, so she should be locked up first."

"yes."

The two quickly retreated.

After a long journey back to the imperial capital, not only the two of them, but everyone was tired. The most important thing right now was to send the South Vietnamese prisoners to the prison, let the soldiers disperse and go back to rest, see their families, reunite with their wives, children and children, and take a good bath. Take a bath and have a meal.

Everything else can be left for tomorrow.

Xie Shoufu stroked his chin, silently watching the steady and tall backs of the two young people, and nodded secretly. Yes, you can clearly see the growth of the two of them every time they accomplish a big thing. They are neither arrogant nor impetuous, nor shocked by honor or disgrace. There is no reason. He is arrogant and arrogant when he makes meritorious deeds, and he is not overjoyed by rewards.

It is rare for young people to have such determination.

"The First World War in South Vietnam has completely enhanced Tanglin's reputation. Let's see if other countries dare to provoke provocations in the future."

"As soon as the Dongling Iron Cavalry came out, even the powerful country of South Vietnam was wiped out. From now on, kings of all countries must weigh their words carefully, otherwise they will end up like South Vietnam."

"Prince Yao is worthy of being the son of King Huainan. It is true that a tiger father has no dog son."

"The most important thing is that the regent is good at employing people, and the monarch and his subjects trust him, which makes people worry-free."

"Mr. Xie is not bad either. He has perfectly inherited the intelligence and steadiness of Mr. Xie. Since he entered the court, he has really undergone a complete transformation compared to the past."

"Prince Yao and Mr. Xie are really a perfect match. They are both outstanding and brilliant."

Prime Minister Xie silently looked at his colleagues in the court and listened to them start to flatter him unscrupulously. He couldn't help but say: "I heard that you all impeached my son and Prince Yao for bringing bad habits. How can they be a perfect match?"

The ministers were choked and looked embarrassed.

Prime Minister Xie smiled and said, "Facts have proved that two excellent people together will only be more excellent, and they will not bring about any bad atmosphere. Do you admit it?"

The ministers nodded: "Prime Minister is right, it is us who are narrow-minded."

"You are not narrow-minded, but we are temporarily bound by the thoughts of the sages... Of course, it is our duty as scholars to follow the way of sages, and we should abide by it, but rules are dead, people are alive, and it is okay to make occasional changes. As long as we stick to the bottom line and principles, do not violate the laws and regulations, and do not set a bad example, then we can be tolerant occasionally."

"Prime Minister is right."

"We are ashamed."

Nan Xi's mouth twitched slightly. I don't know how Xuanyuan Yao and Xie Jin came back, and the court hall turned into a flattery meeting.

"If there is nothing else, let's adjourn for the time being." Rong Yu said, "Prime Minister Xie and Prime Minister Lu will go to the Qinzheng Hall to discuss matters with me later, and everyone else will disperse."

After speaking, he stood up and stretched out his hand to Nan Xi.

Nan Xi put her hand into his, then turned and left as the ministers kowtowed and bid farewell to her.
