Chapter 212 Request for Reward (6 More)

Hearing this, Emperor Wan Yun finally showed a hint of interest in his eyes.

After holding it back for so long, can he finally hold it back?

He knew these two prime ministers very well. Each of them had no problem with their abilities. They were very powerful. Any dynasty that could have these two people to govern the internal affairs would gradually become stronger.

Therefore, Emperor Wan Yun believed that Wei Xiang was not giving in. He must have a purpose.

"Play."

"Your Majesty, the horse bandits roaming outside Liufeng City have been killed by me. Tracing back to the source, I found that there was a shadow of the Three Mountains and Five Ridges behind them. So I suspect that these horse bandits are very likely to have been bewitched by them. As for the purpose, it is not clear yet. I am investigating."

Wei Xiang retreated to advance, and came up to directly ask for credit.

"You have done a good job in what I asked you to do. Tell me, what reward do you want?"

Emperor Wan Yun smiled slightly, "Don't talk about promotion or anything like that. After all, you only have your teacher Lin Gong left above you."

Emperor Wan Yun was obviously joking with these words.

But it was also from another side to hit Wei Xiang and Zuo Xiang.

The meaning is very clear: Don't think I don't know anything about the tricks and conspiracies you two are playing. I just don't want to argue with you. Don't go too far with some things, and don't be too ugly.

Zuo Xiang's expression was stern, and he immediately lowered his head.

As for Wei Xiang, he immediately knelt on the ground, "I never dared to have such thoughts. The teacher is irreplaceable. Both me and Zuo Xiang are from the teacher's school. How dare I have the slightest intention of overstepping my authority?"

Hearing this, Zuo Xiang also knelt down quickly, "Wei Xiang is right. Lin Gong is our teacher. How can a student covet the teacher's position? I dare not, I dare not!"

At the same time, he scolded Wei Xiang in his heart.

You retreat to advance, but you have to involve me.

This has no practical effect. At most, it will disgust me and make me feel uncomfortable.

"It's just a small contribution. I dare not have too many excessive demands..."

Wei Xiang continued to be humble.

"Wei Qing, you don't have to do this. I said I want to reward you. Just ask boldly."

Emperor Wan Yun frowned slightly. He thought in his heart, what does it mean that Wei Xiang changed his usual behavior?

Is his appetite bigger than that of Zuo Xiang?

If so, it's really a bit ungrateful!

Wei Xiang lowered his head and said seriously, "I dare to ask your majesty to reward me with a treasure!"

"Say it."

Emperor Wan Yun raised his eyebrows and found it more and more interesting.

Want a treasure?

There are many treasures in the treasury.

"Yin Yang Wan Ling Lu!"

Wei Xiang slowly raised his head, with a firm look in his eyes.

After hearing about Yin Yang Wan Ling Lu, many civil and military officials in the venue all showed doubts.

Although this thing is precious, it is at most equivalent to three holy pills.

Moreover, it is not widely used. It can only be used to restore the spirit of the instrument in the magic weapon, or to be integrated into the pill furnace to make medicine.

This feeling is very strange.

What should I say? First, you, Prime Minister Wei, witnessed your mortal enemy, the Left Prime Minister, placing three confidants in positions of power, and then personally wasted an opportunity for His Majesty to reward you. I thought you would make a very important request, but who would have thought that you would ask for the Yin-Yang Wanling Dew.

In fact, Prime Minister Wei was also very helpless about this.

Yesterday, Ye Chen came to Liufeng City from the land of Hundred Countries and lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

He wanted to rely on his own connections to find the Yin-Yang Wanling Dew.

Wei Xiang immediately arranged for people to contact all the major shops in the Xiaoyue Dynasty. All the famous shops were asked, but the result was that there was no Yin-Yang Wanling Dew at all.

This thing is really unpopular, so the quantity is scarce.

In the end, Prime Minister Wei found out that there were some stocks of Yin-Yang Wanling Dew in the treasury of the Xiaoyue Dynasty.

Prime Minister Wei saw that Ye Chen was very eager to get it, so he weighed it and finally decided to ask Emperor Wan Yun for a reward during the grand court meeting today, and he wanted this bottle of Yin-Yang Wanling Dew!

In the eyes of others, Wei Xiang gave up a great opportunity and made an absurd request.

But in fact, he did not regret it.

Ye Chen had done him a favor. This was the first time he made a request to him, and he should satisfy it no matter what.

There must not be any mistakes!

So, this scene happened.

Emperor Wan Yun heard this and smiled faintly, "Is that all?"

"Your Majesty, I have only one request, please fulfill it."

Wei Xiang knelt down and kowtowed. Whether it was a price or a loss, since Ye Chen had asked, he must help him complete it.

"Okay, I'll let Hou Qing take you to get it later."

Emperor Wan Yun was not interested.

I thought Wei Xiang would continue to confront Zuo Xiang, but I didn't expect it to end like this.

It was really boring.

"If you have something to report, please leave the court."

The eunuch Hou Qing spoke again, sweeping his eyes across the civil and military officials.

All the ministers shook their heads.

After leaving the court, some officials took the initiative to step forward and gathered beside Wei Xiang.

"Prime Minister Wei, what do you want this Yin Yang Wan Ling Lu for?"

"His Majesty said he would reward you, but you only wanted this Yin Yang Wan Ling Lu..."

All the officials looked disappointed.

Of course, they didn't dare to say too much.

Wei Xiang smiled faintly and said, "I need this Yin Yang Wanling Dew, but I can't find it anywhere else. It's only in the national treasury. Thanks to your majesty's kindness, I was given a chance to ask for a reward. As a minister, I am satisfied with the reward. How dare I ask for more?"

The officials all shook their heads helplessly.

You, Wei Xiang, are now fighting with Zuo Xiang. If you don't seize many opportunities, don't blame the other party for climbing over your head.

"Wei Xiang, come with me."

The old eunuch Hou Qing walked in front of Wei Xiang at some point.

He flicked his whisk and said in a shrill voice, "I will take you to the national treasury to get the reward!"

"Thank you, eunuch."

Although Hou Qing put his status very low, Wei Xiang was very polite to him.

Hou Qing had served in the palace for hundreds of years and was also recognized as one of the super masters. Although he rarely took action, no one dared to put on airs in front of him. Even the Prime Minister Lin Gong had to be polite to Hou Qing.

On the way, Hou Qing asked, "What does Prime Minister Wei want this Yin Yang Wan Ling Lu for?"

It seemed like an unintentional act, but in fact it was the intention of Emperor Wan Yun.

Prime Minister Wei also knew that some things could not be hidden from the emperor's eyes and ears.

So, he answered directly, "Ye Chen came to the Prime Minister's residence yesterday. He urgently needed this Yin Yang Wan Ling Lu and asked me for help. After some inquiries, I found out that Yin Yang Wan Ling Lu was only available in the national treasury, so I dared to ask Your Majesty to reward it."

"Is it that young swordsman, Ye Chen?"

Hou Qing paused. He had obviously heard of this name.
