Chapter 116 The Study is a Good Place
Jiang Chen looked at Bai Yan with a smirk on his face.
"you……"
Bai Yan blushed when she saw Jiang Chen's evil smile.
She has been married to Jiang Chen for nearly half a year, so how could she not know what Jiang Chen is thinking.
But in broad daylight, I'm afraid... it's not a good idea, right?
While Bai Yan was hesitating, Jiang Chen had already pulled Bai Yan into the study.
"Husband, you can go to my room. What are you...what are you doing in the study?"
After entering the study, Bai Yan lowered her head shyly, not daring to look at Jiang Chen.
"Hehehe, dear sister, isn't it good to be here?"
"There is a strong scholarly atmosphere here. If we have a baby, he will definitely be a good student in the future." Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face. At the same time, he reached out from behind Bai Yan and hugged Bai Yan.
"Humph~"
Bai Yan couldn't help but let out a cry.
Just as Jiang Chen made his move, Bai Yan shyly asked in a low voice, "Can children really study well here?"
Jiang Chen was overjoyed when he heard this!
"Natural!"
"This is a study..."
"hiss!"
Before Jiang Chen could finish his words, Bai Yan had already launched an attack!
……
While Jiang Chen was enjoying Bai Yan's service, something big happened in the capital of Dajing.
At the morning court session, the Dajing Dynasty received a letter from the grassland, demanding that the Dajing Dynasty pay tribute to the grassland, otherwise... the grassland will continue to attack Dajing!
As soon as the news came out, the court of Dajing was in an uproar!
"The grassland is too bullying! We in Dajing cannot surrender!"
"Yes! Don't give in!"
"Destroy those Tartars on the grassland!"
"Kill them!"
"Your Majesty, please give me troops! I will definitely destroy those grassland Tartars!"
"That's right! Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the troops to fight! Beat the grassland Tartars back!"
"His Majesty……"
The generals were the first to step forward and ask for orders to go to war!
Those generals had faces filled with grief and indignation, and they all knelt on the ground!
But before His Majesty the Emperor even opened his mouth, the civil servants could no longer sit still!
"Haha~ You guys are going to the battle? Is it useful?"
"That's right~ If you hadn't been defeated at the border, Dajing wouldn't have arrived today!"
"That's right! You generals only know how to shout about going to war, but can you defeat the grassland people!?"
"The imperial court has given you titles of nobility and military commissions. It's really a waste of money to support you!"
"Haha~"
The civil servants' faces were full of sarcasm.
The civil officials had long been dissatisfied with the fact that only those with military merit could be granted titles in Dajing.
The fight between the two sides has been going on for more than just one or two days!
"what are you saying!?"
When the military generals heard what the civil official said, they became furious!
"You bunch of nerds, what are you so crazy about!?"
"That's right! While we were sacrificing our lives and shedding our blood, what were you doing?!"
"A bunch of bastards!"
When the civil officials heard what the military generals said, they responded without any hesitation!
……
"Who are you scolding!?"
"You are just a bunch of peasants! What are you so arrogant about?"
"That's it! A bunch of soldiers!"
"You are looking for death..."
The two sides argued back and forth, and the court was instantly in chaos.
But in this fight, there were people who did not speak, but watched it all quietly.
The most representative among them is Eunuch Zhang.
At this time, Eunuch Zhang was still wearing a white gown. He was not standing among the civil and military officials, but standing next to the young Emperor.
The young emperor looked at the people arguing below, his expression becoming increasingly ugly, and finally he looked at Eunuch Zhang!
"Master Zhang, what do you think about this?"
When Eunuch Zhang heard this, he smiled faintly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will take care of this matter!"
When the Emperor heard what Eunuch Zhang said, he instantly smiled and all the gloom in his eyes disappeared!
"That's enough! Shut up!"
His Majesty the Emperor shouted viciously at the civil and military officials!
"Your Majesty's forgiveness!"
When the civil and military officials heard that the Emperor was angry, they hurriedly knelt on the ground!
When the Emperor saw this scene, he nodded with satisfaction and then looked at Eunuch Zhang.
"My fellow officers, we are all officials in the same palace, why do we have to be so awkward?"
Eunuch Zhang stepped forward and smiled at the civil and military officials.
But when the civil and military officials heard what Eunuch Zhang said, they were extremely angry!
They looked at the arrogant eunuch Zhang with disdain in their eyes!
"Everyone, His Majesty has decided to pay tribute to the grasslands. At the same time... he has also sent more troops to the border to guard the grasslands at all times!"
"The matter of paying tribute will be handled by the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Revenue. As for the army going to the grassland, it will be selected by General Luo and then reported to His Majesty!"
……
"This……"
After hearing what Eunuch Zhang said, all the civil and military officials looked up at the Emperor.
But the Emperor smiled and said, "What Eunuch Zhang said is exactly what I want! It's settled!"
"Retreat!"
After saying this, His Majesty the Emperor stood up and left, without paying any attention to the unwilling looks of the civil and military officials!
After the Emperor left, Eunuch Zhang also turned around and left, which made the civil and military officials even more angry!
"A eunuch! Why should he stand beside His Majesty and make decisions for His Majesty!"
"He deserves to die! Damn it!"
"Alas! Paying tribute will make the people suffer again!"
"Haha, don't the people suffer during war?!"
"What do you mean!?"
"What do you mean? If you don't agree, go find His Majesty!"
"you……"
Civil and military officials were talking about it and almost started quarreling again.
And this is already the normal situation in the Dajing court!
"Alas, if Her Royal Highness the Princess had succeeded in marrying the princess, perhaps Dajing wouldn't be like this!"
Just as the ministers were about to leave the hall, an official from the Ministry of Rites suddenly uttered these words.
As soon as he said this, all the ministers were stunned!
"Your Highness..."
When the ministers thought of the princess, their eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
The princess was approachable and caring towards the officials. If Her Royal Highness was still alive...
"What a pity! Something happened to Her Royal Highness the Princess on the way and she's nowhere to be found!"
"Ah... Your Highness the Princess..."
All the officials left the hall dejectedly.
As all the officials left, the court's decision instantly reached the ears of all major forces!
After hearing the court's decision, some of these people were happy while others were sad.
Among them, the happiest ones are those families who control the tribute materials!
If the imperial court wants to pay tribute, that's their chance to make a fortune!
