The next morning.
As soon as Zhang Liang walked out of the Hall of Political Decrees, many officials came forward to congratulate him. Some even invited him to a banquet.
The thin Zhang Liang looked at everyone with a smile. However, there was a bit of alienation in his smile. However, under his extremely elegant manner, it did not make people feel unhappy.
After a while, when most of the people had left, Zhou Yu walked over with a smile.
"Congratulations, Zifang."
"Same here."
Zhang Liang's attitude towards Zhou Yu was naturally different. People like them who were summoned by Bai Musheng naturally had quite a good impression of each other. This was also why Zhou Yu could get along with Jia Xu even though their personalities were completely different.
Zhang Liang became the official, and Zhou Yu became the minister of the new dynasty.
Zhan Zhao became the new commander of the Golden Guards. As for the original commander, Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, they were promoted to the position of the garrison general by Bai Musheng, temporarily leading the thirty thousand soldiers of the Northern Camp.
There were over 70,000 people in the North Camp. Bai Musheng planned to split them into several professional legions, which would be led by the generals he summoned. However, Zhao Yun was the only suitable person in Chang 'an at the moment. Bai Musheng planned to talk about the rest later.
"Speaking of which, Zifang, Tian Zi just…"
"There's no need for us to talk about this matter."
Zhang Liang shook his head when he heard Zhou Yu mention Bai Musheng's abnormal behavior.
He was always so slow, as if nothing in the world could make him anxious.
"The Son of Heaven is not an ordinary person. He has his own vision. You and I only need to do our duty as subjects.”
"It's my fault." Zhou Yu bowed with his hands folded in front of his chest. Suddenly, he saw someone rushing off from the corner of his eye.
It was Jia Xu.
Bai Musheng had arranged for him to join the Brocade Guard.
"Wenhe can be considered to have obtained benevolence.”
Zhou Yu sighed as he watched Jia Xu leave in a hurry.
Zhang Liang nodded. Although he did not have much contact with Jia Xu, he also knew what kind of character this person had.
Jia Xu was indeed not suitable to be an official in the court. Compared to standing in the sun, it was better for a person like him to walk in the dark.
Whether it was to himself or to others.
Moreover, Tian Zi also needed some people to do the dirty work.
"I heard that the Emperor intends to divide the Embroidered Uniform Guards into two. And the part that Wen He was in charge of would be renamed…the Black Ice Platform?”
"That's good too." Zhang Liang nodded slowly." Ji Gang is too ruthless. It's fine to deal with those spies with ulterior motives, but it's still not enough to deal with outsiders. Wenhe is fine, and the emperor's move is fine.”
"However, if that's the case, it'll be difficult for us to find Wen He again.”
"You, don't tell me you're still thinking of returning to that pleasure boat?”
Seeing Zhang Liang teasing him, Zhou Yu burst out laughing.
"What's wrong with that? The warm wind made the tourists drunk. Let's talk about Wenhe. I'm worried that in the long run, Wenhe will become more and more reclusive…"
"Everyone has their own fate."
"Zifang, since when did you believe in these things?”
At this moment, a eunuch quickly walked up to them.
"Lord Zhang, Lord Zhou, the emperor has summoned the two lords for a meeting at the Purple Mansion Hall.”
The two of them immediately turned solemn and hurriedly followed the eunuch toward the Purple Mansion Hall.
When Zhang Liang and Zhou Yu arrived at Zichen Hall, they discovered that besides Bai Musheng, Jia Xu and Ji Gang were also there.
After entering the hall, Zhang Liang and Zhou Yu bowed at the same time. Bai Musheng returned the greeting and let the two of them take their seats.
After taking his seat, Zhang Liang looked up at Bai Musheng.
Bai Musheng, who was sitting high above, was still the same as before. There was no warmth in his eyes, as if he didn't care about anything in the world.
He exchanged glances with Zhou Yu.
Tian Zi's situation was not right.
Suppressing the worry in his heart, Zhang Liang heard Bai Musheng say,""I want to split up the Embroidered Uniform Guards. From now on, the Embroidered Uniform Guards will be in charge of external affairs and will be renamed the Black Ice Platform.”
Ji Gang didn't react in any way. After Bai Musheng finished speaking, he immediately bowed and expressed that he would fully cooperate with Jia Xu.
"The Black Ice Platform has just been built, so I need your cooperation, Ji Gang. Also…Wenhe.”
"Your subject is here."
Jia Xu bowed.
"After the Black Ice Platform is established, we'll focus on infiltrating Goguryeo.”
The four of them immediately shivered. They knew that the Emperor was planning to make a move against Goguryeo.
However…was it a little too fast?
"Everyone, don't worry. I won't attack this country in the short term.”
He was relieved.
After the discussion was over, Zhang Liang deliberately fell behind.
Walking out of Zichen Hall, he paused. Sure enough, he heard the eunuch come forward to report that the emperor had invited him.
Entering the Purple Mansion Hall once again, Zhang Liang first bowed and then asked,""Your Majesty, is there something wrong with your body?”
"It's fine. Zifang need not worry, just now I saw you uneasy, is it because of this matter?”
"That's right." Zhang Liang's tone carried unconcealable worry.
Although he did not need to worry about the emperor when he chatted with Zhou Yu, he was still worried.
"If this is the case, Zi Fang can step down.”
"…I'll take my leave."
Zhang Liang had no choice but to leave.
When Bai Musheng was the only one left in the hall, he slowly closed his eyes.
Bai Musheng was well aware that his condition was abnormal.
Under absolute rationality, Bai Musheng was able to observe himself as if he was looking at an outsider. He knew very well that he was currently in an extremely strange situation.
It was the same as when he ascended the throne yesterday.
However…
So what?
Although he could guess that his condition was definitely related to Zhu Menghuang, and there was a high chance that he would recover if he saw her again, this kind of attitude of abandoning the seven emotions and six desires of mortals and being absolutely calm and rational was beneficial and harmless for dealing with government affairs.
So-
Falling in love?
What relationship!
I don't want to fall in love. I only have gda in my heart!
Women will only affect the speed at which I read memorials!
"Men, bring the memorial over. Lunch is canceled.”
…Dividing line…
Inside the Phoenix Palace.
When Zhu Menghuang slowly opened her eyes, the joy in her eyes was especially obvious.
"That's great. At this speed, I'm afraid that the space within the soul imprint will be opened after a while, right?”
"At that time, I can take out the good things I put inside.”
Zhu Menghuang happily got off the bed and stretched her body.
She felt warm all over, as if she was in a hot spring. She narrowed her eyes in enjoyment.
It had been a long time since he had experienced such a carefree feeling brought about by cultivation.
"Forsythia! Forsythia!"
Lian Qiao, who had been waiting outside, immediately walked in when she heard Zhu Menghuang call her.
"Empress?"
"When is it?"
"It's already past noon, does Your Ladyship want to eat?”
"Where is His Majesty?"
Lian Qiao shook her head and said she didn't know.
Zhu Menghuang frowned suspiciously.
What was the situation with Gou 'zi? Usually, if the two of them hadn't separated at this time, wouldn't they have run over to have lunch with him?
Everyone is in the palace now, why is she gone?
