Lady of Fortune, Jiao Niang

C195-196

Ye Pingrong is coming back.

He is going to fight here, and he will be away. What happens will not be quickly transmitted back to Beijing, even if there is a military report, unless it is a great victory, he will not yell at ordinary people about the war.

Ordinary battle reports will only be sent to the palace for the emperor to discuss with his courtiers, but will not tell others casually.

Ye Jiao is Ye Pingrong's sister, but Ye Jiao doesn't know what exactly Ye Pingrong is doing at the border and how the battle is going.

This was the first time Ye Jiao heard about Ye Pingrong since the last frontier victory, and she knew that her eldest brother was stationed in Shiliting, very close to the capital.

Ye Jiao immediately smiled and stretched out her hand to pull Qi Yun and said, "Can I go and see Big Brother?"

Qi Yun knew that Ye Jiao missed Ye Pingrong very much. Her own lady had always had a temperament of "who treats her well, she treats whoever is good". Ye Dalang never keeps it to her, and Ye Jiao naturally keeps Ye Pingrong in his heart all the time.

Now that I heard that Ye Pingrong had returned, it was normal to want to see it.

But Qi Yun hugged Ye Jiao lightly, and said slowly: "I also want to see my eldest brother earlier, but this man with soldiers is different from others, as long as he didn't return to Beijing and didn't face the emperor. Reporting the battle situation, he was still on the battlefield and could easily not see others. What's more, now that he is stationed in Shiliting, it is bound to be the emperor's instruction. He will naturally be welcomed by tomorrow. There are many things to prepare. We still have to wait. Wait."

The little ginseng is persuasive, and Qi Yun's words are extremely reasonable, so she nodded, but the smile on her face still couldn't stop.

At this moment, Qi Ming in the study also got the news. He and Xiao Yuanbai looked at each other, both eyes were a little bit happy.

The role of the Privy Council is to assist the prime minister in the division of military and administration, in charge of military secret affairs, and also to manage border defense.

The Privy Council was the first to know what happened this time.

As the decree of the Privy Council, both Qi Ming and Xiao Yuanbai paid special attention to Ye Pingrong's war. Now they know that he is victorious, and both of them are relieved.

Not only for Ye Pingrong's joy, but also because the peace of war is also a good thing for the Privy Council.

At least the two will get a day's rest tomorrow.

Xiao Yuanbai has always had a calm mind. Although he was happy at the moment, his face was still light: "This is a happy event. Tomorrow you will go with me to meet General Ye outside the city."

Qi Ming smiled and nodded, his tone of joy: "Since it is a big victory, according to the previous promise made by General Ye to his Majesty, I hope that there will be no more hostility within 30 years of coming to the border."

Xiao Yuan nodded in white, and the corners of his mouth were slightly tilted, looking very pleased.

But when it comes to this, Qi Ming is still a little puzzled: "Brother Xiao, you said those small countries have always caused trouble. Now that the country is rich and the people are strong, why not take them as a vassal country? Wouldn't it be more stable for a long time?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuanbai first took the tea cup and took a sip, and then said: "Since I established my own country, it is not that I can't, but I don't want to use another country as minister."
