Chapter 1763 Good News

The emperor was discussing matters with Heng Xiang and several ministers of Shangshu in the imperial study room, and suddenly he heard a loud voice coming from outside: "Good news, good news from Fujian."

Heng Xiang and several Shangshu looked at each other, but the emperor smiled.

Xuan Jing entered with a battle report and said, "Your Majesty, the good news sent by Fujian."

The emperor took the good news and browsed it quickly. After reading it, he smiled and said, "Fu Jingen and a thousand soldiers and horses suppressed the pirates of Black Rock Island."

After saying that, let Xuanjing show the good news to several people.

Heng Xiang first finished reading this good news, but he waited until several ministers read it before saying, "Your Majesty, this matter is very important, and someone needs to be found."

The emperor's face immediately pulled down: "Check it out? Do you doubt whether this good news is fake or do you think Fu Jingen is taking his credit?"

The Minister of Works also agreed with Heng Xiang's words and said: "Your Majesty, the pirates on Heiyan Island have been plaguing the coastal areas for a long time. The imperial court has repeatedly sent troops to wipe out the pirates on Heiyan Island but failed. After all, General Fu has only been in Fuzhou for more than two months, and he has suppressed the pirates on Heiyan Island. This matter should be cautious."

Shu Long, the Minister of War, immediately said this: "Master Fu is a genius, and he passed the second place at the age of ten and twenty. What's so strange about him now taking two months to capture Black Rock Island?"

The Minister of Revenue also stood on Fu Jingen's side and said, "Those who falsely take other people's military merits will be deprived of fame and fortune by 40 years of responsibility. Lord Fu has a bright future and cannot do such a ruthless thing."

The Minister of Justice also echoed: "I heard Wang Shaoqing say that Lord Fu is familiar with the "Da Ming Law and Order", and I believe that he will not know the law and break the law."

After seeing Heng Xiang, the Minister of Personnel and others, the emperor said with a gloomy look: "I will send someone to investigate this matter, but the Ministry of War must quickly implement the promotion list and rewards."

After saying this, the emperor let everyone go down.

Two quarters of an hour later, the good news spread to Kunning Palace. Mo Xue said: "My second son-in-law is really amazing. He has wiped out the black thieves from Black Rock Island in just two months after he went to Fuzhou."

Yi An said lightly: "What's so strange about this? My father said a long time ago that Fu Jingen is a general. I wanted to recruit him into the military camp at the beginning, but unfortunately this guy didn't agree, otherwise there would be an extra marshal in my dynasty. Unexpectedly, he would still join the army after going around."

Mo Xue said: "My second aunt is not just a temporary solution. She will return to Beijing soon."

Yi An said lightly: "It is impossible to respond to the matter in Fujian without completely solving it."

Mo Xue looked at her expression and asked strangely: "Empress, why are you still unhappy after a big victory?"

“Nothing to be happy about.”

Mo Xue didn't understand what she meant, but she didn't chased her and asked, "Empress, the second aunt doesn't know about this yet. Let's send someone to tell her the good news!"

Yi An thought for a while and shook his head and said, "Tell her now that she will worry about her for one more day, and it will be better to tell her when she enters the palace tomorrow."

"What else can I worry about after winning a battle?"

Yi An thought for a while and said, "The imperial court sent troops several times but failed to wipe out the pirates of Black Rock Island. Why did Fu Jingen take down Black Rock Island in such a short time?"

Mo Xue's face changed slightly: "Empress, is your meaning, Master Fu's good news false? It's impossible. If this is fake, it will be a crime of deceiving the emperor."

"How could Fu Jingen do such a stupid thing?"

Mo Xue didn't understand: "What is that Empress worried about?"

Yi An briefly explained the situation of Black Rock Island, and after saying that, "The good news cannot be fake. Fu Jingen took down Black Rock Island with only one answer, assassination. Capture the thief first, and kill the pirate leader, and it is easy to break through if he kills the leader of the dragon without a leader."

Mo Xue now understood: "Empress, you mean that the second son-in-law assassinated the pirate leader, so you can win this battle."

Yi An nodded and said, "Apart from this reason, I can't think of any ability of the navy army to wipe out the vicious pirates of Blackbeard with one thousand people."

Mo Xue felt that her analysis was reasonable and said, "Then let's hide this from my second aunt for the time being. Let's talk about it when the news from Fujian is spread."

"You think it can be hidden?"

Mo Xue thought for a while and said, "My second aunt may not know. She has been busy resettling victims recently, so she may not have the time and energy to pay attention to the affairs of the court."

Yi An looked at her and scolded, "I said she had been stupid for three years after pregnancy, but you were not pregnant, why wasn't even as good as me, a big-bellied woman? Qingshu was going to work as a servant in the Ministry of Revenue after the first month of the year. Do you think she would always pay attention to the affairs in the court?"

"What should I do?"

Yi An said with a distressed look: "None of us can help her in this matter, I just hope she can relax."

At this moment, the emperor came over.

Yi An stood up to greet him.

The emperor hurriedly walked up to her and carefully supported her and said, "Doctor Le repeatedly told her to walk slowly on weekdays, why don't you listen?"

Yi An said, "They wish I could lie in bed every day to raise my baby so that nothing unexpected happens. But I don't think about how I have the strength to give birth to the child after I stay in the house all day without moving."

"I didn't say I won't let you go, but your body is so heavy that I can't help her."

Yi An said irritably, "What are you helping with? I'm just pregnant, not that I can't walk."

When Qingshu Huaifu was running around, it was fine. She kicked a baby egg when she was pregnant. This was not possible and that couldn't be done, making her look like a prisoner."

Of course, the reason why she is irritated is that the more difficult it becomes to get to the late stage of pregnancy.

The emperor smiled and said, "Fu Jingen won a big victory. Do you know this?"

"I know, Fu Jingen brought a thousand troops to wipe out the pirates on Black Rock Island. Emperor, did he lead people to sneak into Black Rock Island to assassinate Black Beard?"

The emperor was startled and asked, "How did you know?"

"Black Rock Island is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you attack from the front, you can't get a thousand people without an ex. So, unless you assassinate the Blackbeard and then create chaos on Black Rock Island."

The emperor smiled and said, "You have all said it. Fu Jingen sneaked into Black Rock Island and killed Black Beard and many pirates. Black Rock Island was in chaos, and Yuan Tie had to take Black Rock Island."

Among them, there were slaves who took the opportunity to create chaos, which made Zhang Yuxing care about his head and tail, otherwise he would not have been defeated so quickly.

"How did he know where Blackbeard lives?"

“There are our people on the island.”

Yi An said with a smile: "If you can get the defensive map and the place where Blackbeard lives, this person's status will definitely be great."

The emperor said with a nod, "Don't worry, all the three people sent by the court returned to Fuzhou City safely."

Yi An nodded and said, "Emperor, Fu Jingen made great contributions this time, which should be able to eliminate the court officials' doubts about him."

"I've sent someone to verify this."

Yi An understood as soon as he heard this, and said disdainfully: "Fu Jingen doesn't have to rely on military merits to be promoted, so how could he do stupid things to take military merits? These people are completely judged by the heart of villains."
