I really became a king.

Chapter 67 The Prince is Very Happy

The reason why Jiang Yi secluded himself for two years and was completely isolated from the world was not only because he wanted to practice meditation, but there was another reason.

Two years ago, the Battle of Longmen ended. About ten days later, an imperial decree was issued from the palace, appointing Jiang Yi as the chief officer of the royal stables, in charge of the imperial horses.

When the decree came out, everyone in the world was shocked. Is this the military position and command of an army that was promised to him?
The Royal Stables are in charge of hundreds of thousands of mounts of various types in the Dali Imperial Capital. As the chief officer, he has tens of thousands of subordinates. At first glance, it seems that he is in charge of an entire army.

But all those who knew the inside story felt unfair for Jiang Yi.

After Jiang Yi received the imperial edict, the eunuch who delivered the order had just stepped out when the gate of Prince Duan's Mansion slammed shut. Then news came that Prince Duan's Mansion was closed to visitors.

Deceiving too much!

In his previous life, Monkey King was also a Horse Keeper at the beginning, but at least he was worthy of the title. After all, he was in charge of genuine war horses of the heavenly soldiers and generals.

And what about him, the chief officer of the Royal Horse Farm? He was in charge of the ceremonial mounts used in the Dali Dynasty celebrations, which were all fancy mounts that looked good but were useless. Even so, was this considered a powerful military position in charge of an entire army?

The seal on the decree also made Jiang Yi feel a little disappointed. It was the seal of Queen Dali, and his cheap grandfather remained silent again.

Jiang Yi was disappointed. He had thought about the Kui Camp, which was in charge of 100,000 soldiers and horses, but he did not hold much hope. However, rewarding him to raise horses was too embarrassing.

He now understands that he should fight for what he should fight for, but the prerequisite is to have sufficient strength and capital, otherwise it will be in vain.

Now that he has established himself in Prince Duan's Mansion, it is a good time for him to calm down and practice hard to improve his own strength.

Without the support of strength, it is difficult to participate in some things. Even if you participate, you cannot take the initiative, just like this battle of Longmen.

He even had the idea of ​​staying in seclusion until he became invincible, and then coming out. This is not impossible.

He carries with him a treasure trove that rivals that of the seven sects and eight schools, with all kinds of cultivation resources at his disposal, and a golden man automatically deduces to help him break through bottlenecks.

All Jiang Yi needs is time, but there is something he must do, otherwise he will never be at peace for the rest of his life.

Mo Ruhai came once later, but Jiang Yi had already gone into seclusion and refused to come out, so he had no choice but to return to the palace.

Afterwards, the Emperor of Dali and the Queen had their first fierce quarrel. The Emperor was furious and executed several eunuchs who went to Prince Duan's mansion to convey the imperial edict on the charge of falsely conveying the imperial edict.

Immediately afterwards, an imperial edict was issued, but the eunuchs who delivered the edict had to wait for two years.

Inside the Jingqi Hall, Jiang Yi took a sip of tea from the teacup. Just as he placed it on the table, Tuo Xiaoliu, who was standing beside him, refilled the cup again and then gently placed the teapot on the table.

"Are those eunuchs who are here to deliver the imperial edict still waiting outside the door?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I've waited for two whole years." Tuo Xiaoliu, who was dressed as a cook, answered softly. She raised her head and glanced at Jiang Yi cautiously, thinking that she hadn't seen her own prince for two years, and his majesty had become even more majestic.

Then he remembered something and there was some hesitation on his face, as if he was wondering whether he should say it.

"Anything else? Say it!" Jiang Yi didn't know why, but he felt angry when he saw the other party trying to compromise.

Tuo Xiaoliu shuddered, and with a hint of tears in his voice, he hurriedly said, "There is another person who has often appeared outside the palace in the past few months. I think he is also looking for the prince."

"There's another person?" Jiang Yi frowned.

"Yes, an old woman..."

"I see. Uncle Fu is not in the mansion?" Jiang Yi waved his hand to interrupt her and asked.

"Uncle Fu has been elusive for the past month and is often missing..."

Tuo Xiaoliu was speaking when he looked up and saw Jiang Yi staring at him. He panicked and waved his hands repeatedly, stammering in a crying voice:
"I...I didn't mean to say anything bad about Uncle Fu..." "Are you afraid of me?" Jiang Yi asked.

"Ah..." Tuo Xiaoliu replied subconsciously. After he came to his senses, he lowered his head and pulled his sleeves nervously.

"Okay, let someone open the door."

"Hey."

Tuo Xiaoliu walked out in a hurry as if he had been pardoned. When he walked out of the door, he patted his body gently, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's scary!"

"Alas, I don't know when the princess and the others will come out of seclusion. If they don't..."

As if he had thought of some terrible scene, he shuddered all over and continued to mutter, "I'd better go back to the kitchen and not serve here anymore. Whoever wants to serve me can do it..."

"What are you mumbling about? Go open the door!"

"Hey, I'll go right away." Hearing the voice from inside the Jingqi Hall, Tuo Xiaoliu trotted all the way to the gate. When he reached the gate, he remembered something, stopped, and tried to calm his heavy breathing.

"Come here, the prince has come out, open the door!"

After two years of accumulation of momentum, he stood with his hands on his waist, with a certain authority. Several guards immediately responded and opened the door.

After two years, the door of Prince Duan's Mansion opened again, immediately attracting a lot of people's attention.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... great joy!"

The eunuch Pang Xuan, who had been waiting at the door for two years, suddenly burst into tears. It was not easy. He had waited for two whole years to finally see this moment. If he kept waiting, he might even lose his position in the palace.

As soon as the door opened, he ran into the mansion with two young eunuchs, shouting and yelling.

But there was a figure that was faster than him. A silver-haired old lady had passed him and entered the gate.

Who is this? Can't you see that I am holding the imperial edict in my hand?
"I, Taihua, a disciple of Mu Xiruo of the Northern Frontier Mu Clan, have been ordered to come and visit the prince!"

After hearing this, Pang Xuan, who was about to yell at someone, choked and coughed a few times. The Northern Frontier Mu family, even the Emperor of Dali, showed some courtesy to them, so it was better not to seek death.

"Haha, Deacon Tuo, do you know where the prince is? Please lead the way..." There was no other way, he could only turn his gaze to someone he didn't want to deal with.

"Ah... Your Majesty, my prince is in the Jingqi Hall, Eunuch Pang, please go by yourself."

After a perfunctory response, Tuo Xiaoliu hurried towards the kitchen. Forget it, before the princess came out of seclusion, she should just be a good cook. She didn't want to face that fierce face alone again.

"This... this... where is the Qiong Hall?"

It was the first time that Pang Xuan felt so embarrassed and a little bit ashamed. He was a purple-robed eunuch, how could he have been ignored like this before? Moreover, he was holding the imperial edict in his hand.

No matter which mansion you go to, you have to worship them like ancestors, but this Prince Duan's mansion...

Fortunately, after a while, a eunuch from the palace came over and respectfully led him to the Jingqi Hall.

It also helped the eunuch Pang Xuan regain some confidence.
