Mo Linhui had personally come!
Jing fei had just come to complain and he had come. The news had spread so quickly!
In this palace, who knew how many of his spies there were.
The soul doppelganger silently noted down this matter. Jing fei's expression instantly darkened. If Mo Linhui interfered in this matter, he probably couldn't do anything to Mo Yi Le.
"Your Majesty … …" Jing fei had just opened her mouth when the soul doppelganger reached out to stop her.
"Prime Minister Mo must have come for state matters. Go to the side hall and wait. Zhen will handle this impartially," the soul doppelganger said with authority.
Jing fei didn't dare to disobey and could only bow and leave. Before she left, she looked deeply at Mo Yi Le.
Mo Yi Le also stood and said, "I didn't do it on purpose."
After the two women left, Mo Linhui quickly walked over, "Your Majesty, regarding Yi fei, this old subject has something to say!"
The soul doppelganger shook his head and said, "Beloved Official Mo, there's no need to say more. Zhen knows what happened to Yi fei."
Knew? What did he know?
Mo Linhui was still trying to figure out His Majesty's intentions when the soul doppelganger continued, "There is something strange about this matter. Zhen doesn't believe that there isn't a ghost. Therefore, zhen has decided to deduct three months of Yi fei's allowance as a warning. What does beloved Official Mo think?"
The matter of an imperial concubine beating a palace maid to death had been reported to the Emperor. If it was an imperial concubine without any background, it was possible that she would be crippled after a fight.
But when it came to Mo Yi Le, it was only three months of allowance. This was practically no punishment at all.
Did the daughter of the prime minister lack that bit of allowance?
Mo Linhui understood. This was His Majesty giving him face, and it was done so cleanly that he didn't even have to use the speech he had prepared.
He bowed and said, "My daughter is stubborn and doesn't know the rules. She has caused trouble for His Majesty, but His Majesty is magnanimous and does not pursue this matter. This old subject will naturally repay with his life."
Since the Emperor has given you so much face, you have to show some sincerity.
The soul doppelganger smiled, "Beloved Official Mo cannot die. Zhen is still counting on you to help zhen expand the borders and achieve great feats.
Right, you should have received this report as well. "
As he spoke, his soul clone took out the information regarding the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range.
"This old subject has also just found out about the great victory in the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range. This is truly a matter of great celebration. That Head Steward Liu not only solved the problem in the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range, he even found the Head Steward of the Northern Wei Empire's Consecration Hall. This is truly a miraculous achievement."
"Not bad, it's an amazing technique."
The soul avatar stood up and said, "Then what does Minister Mo think we should give him as a reward?"
Mo Linhui pondered as he slowly said, "Steward Liu just received a large amount of rewards from the World's First Spirit Cultivator Assembly half a month ago. Not only did he have the authority to act as the Great Commander of the Dark Thunder Guards, he was also conferred the title of Zhenling Duke.
Only half a month has passed, and Head Steward Liu has made such a great contribution. Logically speaking, he should be greatly rewarded. However, if he is given too much of a reward, this old official is afraid that there will be other voices in the court.
Especially since Head Steward Liu is too young and inexperienced. The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. "
His words were rather vague. To put it bluntly, it was inappropriate to give out a large reward in a short period of time. Otherwise, it would easily cause dissatisfaction.
Even if Leng Shiqi had made a genuine contribution, continuous rewards would still make people jealous, and even secretly hate him.
"Beloved Official Mo is right, but Head Steward Liu has risked his life to obtain such a great victory. If his reward is mediocre, it would be unjustifiable."
At this moment, Mo Linhui's expression suddenly became a bit gloomy. He said in a low voice, "This old official has something to say, but I don't know if I should say it."
"Beloved Official Mo, there is no harm in saying it." The soul doppelganger saw Mo Linhui's expression and roughly guessed what he wanted to say.
Mo Linhui's eyes flashed, and he said, "Your Majesty, Liu Xingzhi has grown too quickly. Two years ago, he was still a small supervisor in the Western Desolate Province, but now he is about to take over the Dark Thunder Guards!
Regardless of whether it is his influence or strength, they are both increasing at a monstrous speed. Your Majesty has only ascended the throne for a short period of time. Previously, there was the First Spirit Cultivator Conference, and now, there is the calming of the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range. With his ability, his contributions in the future will not be small.
Your Majesty, have you ever thought of a question? Now that Liu Xingzhi holds great power in the court, what can you give him in the future?
Is it the position of Commander of the Dark Thunder Guards, or the title of King?
And after that?
What else can you give him?
Your Majesty, you must be careful that your achievements overshadow your master! "
The more Mo Linhui spoke, the lower his voice became, but the words that came out of his mouth were a bit harsh.
If the soul doppelganger was an ordinary emperor, he would have no resistance in front of these words. He would more or less be wary and suspicious of Leng Shiqi!
The soul doppelganger was silent for a moment before saying, "Then what does Beloved Official Mo think we should give this time?"
"This is naturally up to Your Majesty to decide. This old official only has one thing to say, and that is to try not to give him too much power!"
"Mm, We understand. How about this … …" The soul doppelganger spoke his thoughts.
Hearing this, Mo Linhui's eyes kept flickering, and he showed hesitation.
The soul doppelganger could tell that Mo Linhui felt that the reward was a bit inappropriate. He glanced in the direction of the side hall and said, "Head Steward Liu has not returned to the imperial capital yet, so this matter is not urgent. How about we discuss it another day?
Beloved Official Mo, you can go back first. We still have some family matters to take care of. "
When the words "family matters" were mentioned, Mo Linhui's heart trembled. A trace of understanding flashed through the depths of his eyes. So this was what His Majesty was waiting for.
However, he did not understand. He had clearly said it very clearly just now, so why did His Majesty still want to do this?
However, Mo Linhui still raised his head and looked straight at the soul doppelganger. "Your Majesty, this old official feels that Your Majesty's decision is the most reliable. Although there may be some people in the court who are not satisfied, this old official will take care of them properly."
"In that case, I will have to trouble you, Beloved Official Mo. Your words have been recorded in my heart. We know what to do."
At this moment, Mo Linhui suddenly realized that he could no longer see through this Emperor. Even an old fox like him who had served three dynasties could not guess the Emperor's true intentions!
How could he have known that the Emperor in front of him was actually the same person as Leng Shiqi!
The Leng Shiqi in the Demon Suppressing City had already brought everyone back to the imperial capital through the inter-domain teleportation formation. The information had already been sent up, so the Leng Shiqi did not immediately enter the palace. Instead, he chose to rest for two days.
Regarding this, he was not criticized by the people who thought that he was being arrogant. This was because the matter of the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range had already spread throughout the entire Thunderfire Dynasty!
Leng Shiqi had snuck into the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range alone, dealing with two Class 7 Great Demonic Beasts, and setting up an ambush to capture all the Great Demonic Beasts in one fell swoop had already shocked countless people!
Furthermore, the mastermind behind the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range was actually the head of the Consecrated Hall of the Northern Wei Dynasty. This was simply a provocation to the Thunderfire Dynasty!
Many people cursed at the Northern Wei Empire, and some of them even shouted that they wanted to attack the Northern Wei Empire.
It was impossible for them to attack the Northern Wei Dynasty, but it was not a problem to use this matter as a warning.
More importantly, Leng Shiqi had even brought back Zhuo Zhou's corpse!
Zhuo Zhou was an expert at the peak of the Heavenly Origin Stage, and was in charge of the Northern Wei Dynasty's Consecrated Hall. He could be considered as the face of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
But he still died at the hands of Leng Shiqi!
This not only caused the Northern Wei Dynasty's strength and face to be greatly damaged, it also caused countless people to clap their hands in joy.
During this period of time, Leng Shiqi's prestige in the Thunderfire Dynasty was unparalleled!
