Xiao Yao returned to the palace and was surrounded by the emperor and a group of concubines and was almost unable to withstand it.

Even the empress dowager came here, looked at her face, and said that she had become dark and thin. She kept ordering the Yushenfang to make delicious food and give her many precious jewelry.

The emperor and the concubines gave her more, and they seemed to have never seen each other for many years, and they wanted to give her all the good things.

Concubine An said, "After you go to the war, we don't know how much we worry. I heard that a total of 200,000 troops were besieged, so I was even more worried. There is no eye-catching swords, so you should not go to the battlefield again in the future, otherwise your father would have it.

I was worried that I couldn't sleep anymore."

Xiao Yao smiled and said, "I will pay attention to safety."

Once she really needs to go to the battlefield, she will definitely not be out of the matter.

The little prince was only over three years old. He held her thighs, raised his head, and shouted softly: "Sister, don't go."

Xiao Yao bent down, picked up the little prince, and rubbed his chubby face with his face: "Sister goes to beat the bad guys and don't let the bad guys bully the father and Xiao Mutou."

The little prince’s nickname is Xiaomutou. Everyone said that it is easy to support the bad name, but the royal family cannot really make a puppy, so they called Xiaomutou.

Xiao Mutou thought to himself for a while and nodded: "When Xiao Mutou grows up, he will protect his sister."

"Okay." Xiao Yao hopes that the little prince can grow up safely.

After the little prince ascended the throne, chaos arose. The original owner died three years after he ascended the throne. I don’t know if the little prince can grow up safely, then take charge of the rule and clear the administration. However, according to the original owner’s memory, after the little prince ascended the throne,

He is just a puppet and has a very weak personality.

The next day, the emperor specially asked Xiao Yao to go to the Golden Palace to participate in the court meeting.

The court meeting began, and the emperor ordered people to Tiwan Taicheng and counted tens of thousands of Taicheng several crimes. When he mentioned that he did not listen to the advice of the general of the commander and the country protection, he insisted on marching and was ambushed by Beirong, and almost wiped out the entire army.

When he talked about leaving his comrades who had risked his life to survive, he became more and more angry. He mentioned that Wantaicheng also made a rash move ten years ago, resulting in a great defeat, but forged evidence to escape from the crime, and made another general talk back,

He was so angry that he threw things.

This was the first time that the emperor had such a big temper, and all the ministers did not make any noise.

No wonder the emperor was angry. The comrade who risked his life to save Wantai City was Princess Xiaoyao.

The princess sacrificed herself to save her, but he abandoned the princess and ignored her, and it made no sense to put her anywhere.

Xiao Yao looked at the emperor sitting on the dragon throne and did not speak, but thought about the emperor's intention of this move.

The emperor was angry, but he was still very angry when he mentioned it now, which was not very consistent with his personality.

So, he did this on purpose and must have another plan.

The Prime Minister was very good at speaking and immediately stood up and pointed the finger at the Minister of War, believing that they were the ones who used Wantai City. They didn't recognize the people clearly and had an unshirkable responsibility.

The emperor immediately looked at the Minister of War with a burning gaze.

When the Prime Minister saw the emperor's intention, he immediately knew that he wanted to cause the Minister of War, so he added bricks and tiles again.

Xiao Yao was amazed below and admired these officials.

It is certainly wrong for the Minister of Justice to use the wrong person, but the Prime Minister almost didn't call him a vicious and vicious person with ulterior motives and a tendency to sell the country. It is also amazing.

The Minister of Justice immediately called for injustice, and even said that he had been deceived by Wantaicheng, and he did not know that he was so incompetent.

Wantaicheng looked pale and knelt on the ground in an extremely embarrassed manner, listening to the Minister of Justice and his treacherously.

On the battlefield, after he escaped his life, he remembered that the princess was the one who saved him, and he ran away regardless of the princess. At that time, he knew that he had a disaster.

He regretted that he had not run back and moved forward and retreated with the princess, but he was really afraid of death at that time. His only thought was to live, so he had only the idea of ​​living in his mind, and everything else was gone, what princess, what coach, and what comrades with him

All of them are gone when they live and die together.

Sure enough, he was sentenced to be confiscated for his family and exiled for three thousand miles. His property was confiscated.

After hearing this verdict, Wantaicheng couldn't even sit steadily.

Xiao Yao looked at Wantai City and remembered He Xijun's words. He felt that the punishment was not serious and he didn't say anything at the moment.

Because of the Prime Minister's faction, several officials were attacked by the Secretary of War.

At this time, the emperor ordered someone to take another deputy general who fled and surrendered.

This person from the Prime Minister's faction had already surrendered at that time, was tied up by the generals, and led his troops to persevere. He waited for the rescue army to avoid the surrender of 30,000 troops.

The ruthlessness of this deputy general is comparable to that of Wantai City.

The Minister of War was suffering heavy losses and was hating the Prime Minister in his heart. He immediately rushed to take revenge and began to count how bad the deputy general's actions were. It was the key to shaking the morale of the army and even affecting the victory of the war. He pointed the finger at the Prime Minister, believing that the Prime Minister's faction had a force before

Recommending this deputy general is suspected of selling the country.

Xiao Yao listened silently and finally understood that in order to get rid of his opponent, he must learn to label the opponent.

If you have one point mistake, you can get a few more hats, which can go up to nine points. In this way, even if you are discounted when punishing, you can still be punished for five points. No matter how you look at it, you will make a profit.

Some of the Minister of War was a faction that contributed to the treasury, and the emperor also severely punished the Prime Minister and removed several officials.

Xiao Yao thought about something.

This should be a check or balance.

Use the two factions to restrain each other to achieve their goals.

Now there are people in the Prime Minister and the Minister of War, both the Prime Minister and the Minister of War, and the ones who are added to the emperor will be the emperor.

Xiao Yao looked at the Prime Minister and the Minister of War. Seeing that they were angry on their faces, but not very big, he understood that the two knew the emperor’s plan, but even if they knew, they could only jump down.

In any case, it is better to be unlucky together than to be unlucky yourself and then be fucked by your opponent.

Besides, the emperor is the master, and being fooled by him is more comfortable than being fooled by his opponent.

The emperor got angry and proposed to reward the ministers who had made meritorious comments.

This is natural, so all officials are gathered.

However, the first reward proposed by the emperor made the Prime Minister and the Minister of Rites fight against each other.

The emperor proposed that this time, Princess Xiaoyao made great contributions to resisting the Northern Rong army, but she was the highest position in the protection of the country, and she could not be granted the title, but she could not disappoint the princess' heart, so she decided to give up 300,000 soldiers in the north.

The military talisman was handed over to the princess, making her a veritable general.

When the Prime Minister and the Minister of Rites heard about it, they immediately stopped doing it.

Originally, the princess was named the general of the country, but everyone didn't say anything, just because the general of the country had no military power. At most, it sounded nice and did not affect anything. But now that the power of the country was given, it was the veritable general of the country.

This is absolutely not possible!

Xiao Yao couldn't react a little as he heard the objection in his ears.

The emperor had never mentioned this to her in advance, and she had no idea. She thought that after she came back from the victory this time, the emperor could take back the military power and give it to any confidant.

Unexpectedly, I gave it to myself.

The emperor looked at the two sects and said expressionlessly: "According to the wishes of the ministers, the princess has made merits but cannot be rewarded. Instead, it is the one you recommend to be ungrateful and the one who surrenders to the Lord. Isn't it?"

Both factions felt like they were shooting themselves in the foot, but they could not do it.

The prime minister first said: "Of course it is not the case. It's just that the princess is a woman, and it is not reasonable to hold military power. There are many generals in the army, so you can choose another one."

The Minister of War nodded rarely and agreed.

The emperor said, "Can I ensure that the princess is trustworthy, can all the ministers guarantee that the person they recommend is trustworthy? If you can, and make a military order, if anything happens, all the ministers will be punished with him, what if they are in the same way?"

The two factions stopped talking.

The emperor began to mention the inappropriate person they recommended again. One left his life-savior and fled, while the other surrendered, which made the two factions unable to raise their heads. Xiao Yao held the power of 300,000 soldiers in his hand and settled.

When Xiao Yao saw this, he finally understood why the emperor got angry at the beginning.

He took the initiative and left the two factions speechless, and then proposed the goals he wanted to achieve, so that the two factions could not find a strong reason to oppose them.

Xiao Yao expressed his understanding.

Xiao Yao's contribution was settled, and then the other generals were awarded.

Xiao Yao heard this and found that it was fair. Even if the two factions wanted to seek credit for their own people, it would not be too much.

After the court meeting, Xiao Yao was about to go back to his bedroom when he saw the eunuch in front of the emperor coming to invite him, saying that the emperor had invited him.

Xiao Yao went to the imperial study room, and the emperor was compiling the memorial.

Seeing Xiao Yao coming, the emperor put down his pen and looked at Xiao Yao: "What do you think about the matter in the Golden Palace today?"

Xiao Yao thought about it carefully and said, "The emperor wanted me to take charge of military power, so he deliberately took the initiative to make the Prime Minister and the Minister of War dare not impose opposition. In addition, he also used the two factions to fight to remove some positions from the two factions.

Take it for your own use.”

The emperor nodded with satisfaction and sighed: "My distance has grown up." Then he asked, "If there is no surrendered deputy general, you will deal with this matter, what will you do?"

Xiao Yao thought about it and said that without the surrendered deputy general, the Prime Minister's faction would not be conspired, and the balance would be broken. He said immediately: "Let the Prime Minister's faction have problems and the attack occurs, or choose a meritorious minister from the Minister of War.

Award.”

The emperor stared at Xiao Yao: "Oh? Are you not planning to clean up the Minister of Justice first?"

Xiao Yao shook his head: "If the Minister of Justice falls and no one can check or balance the Prime Minister's faction, it will be detrimental to us. Unless we have a way to clean up the two factions together, it is better to keep them balanced."

Originally, the two factions should not be formed, but the Xiao family's royal family is weak and has been difficult to return over the years, so they can only check and balance.

The emperor looked at his daughter with a complicated expression with a red lips, teeth, white eyes and eyes, and said, "How great it would be if you were a man."

He has outstanding military talent and a political perspective, and is a rare suitable candidate.

But it was a woman.

Xiao Yao smiled and said, "When Erchen entered the military camp, some people also said that it would be great if Erchen was a prince. But Erchen used his strength to prove that the princess is not inferior to the prince."

The emperor smiled and said, "Yes, my Yaoyao is very good." Then he left Xiao Yao for lunch together.

At the celebration banquet that day, all officials and wives and outstanding juniors in the family attended.

The emperor announced the reward to the meritorious ministers this time.

Everyone was shocked to hear that the princess would be a real national protection general and was the real power in the north.
