Chapter 823 Court Struggle, the Choice of the Governor (3)
Chapter 823
"Zhao Xun, am I talking nonsense, you know it yourself. Do you think everyone doesn't know about your intentions..."
Ye Zhun blurted out, and as soon as his voice fell, everyone around him seemed to avoid snakes and scorpions, showing fearful expressions. Especially some civil and military officials around the two of them felt uncomfortable, as if they were placed on the stove, they only stayed away from the two flames, but everyone's shifts were fixed, and they couldn't move around at all. .
"Damn it, it's the First Prince and the Seventh Prince! Their people are actually fighting in the hall."
In the Taiji Hall, even some veterans and important ministers from the second rank and the second rank were a little uneasy. Zhao Xun's origins are not simple, although the official is small, he is backed by the eldest prince, and Ye Zhun is also backed by the seven princes. Throughout the dynasties, the dispute between the princes was extremely fierce. When it comes to the unique and supreme throne, any brotherhood can stand aside.
Although the eldest prince is currently the most popular for enthroning, other princes are also actively fighting for it. The fourth prince was the first to be exposed. He actually thought of using the border barbarians to compete with the first prince in the future. Besides the fourth prince, there is another person who is also fighting fiercely with the first prince. His strength is not inferior to the fourth prince. That is the seventh prince, Li Yu. .
Although it is a taboo for the prince in the deep palace to win over the important officials in the court, it is deeply forbidden by the emperor, but if it is just to win over some small officials, it is generally not a big problem. And from the three officials is the limit of officials that the kings of all dynasties can tolerate. As long as they are below this level, the emperors of all dynasties generally turn a blind eye. This is already some kind of unspoken rule involving the dispute between princes.
Even the Holy Emperor, knowing what the two princes were doing behind the scenes, just turned a blind eye and would not pursue it too much.
The selection of Qixi Chief Protector finally turned into a dispute among several princes, which was unexpected by everyone, and everyone was afraid to avoid it. The lessons learned from the fourth prince are still there, who dares to get involved in the dispute between the fourth prince and the seventh prince at this time.
In the hall, many ministers were panicked and restless, and their eyes were looking at the top of the hall. But the Holy Emperor hid behind the bead curtain, motionless, and no one knew what he was thinking. But the Holy Emperor has not expressed any dissatisfaction until now, and from another aspect, it is obvious that he does not care much about this dispute.
Your Highness, Zhao Xun and Ye Zhun had some scruples and reservations at the beginning of the dispute, but when they saw that the Holy Emperor didn't seem to care, at least they didn't express a clear reaction, and the dispute suddenly became more intense.
"Your Majesty, I also recommend General Albus, I think Hao Yushi is right!"
While the two were arguing fiercely,
A loud voice suddenly overwhelmed the two of them and sounded in the hall.
"Asshole! Which blind thing is recommending me at this time?!"
General Tong Luo is still kneeling under His Royal Highness until now, when he heard someone mentioning that he was appointed as the Chief Protector of Qixi, his whole face turned green, and he turned his head angrily, but just took a look, Albus immediately covered himself. With a tremor, the anger that was originally full of heart disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Your Excellency the Prime Minister!
Albus felt cold all over, like a frog being stared at by a snake, a great uneasiness and fear rose in his heart. As the general of Tongluo, he has served generations of kings, from Emperor Taizong to the present, it has lasted for more than a hundred years. There were very few people Albus really had to worry about.
Many times, Albus was forced to kneel on the ground, not because he was afraid of those censors or other civil and military ministers, but because he was just worried about the emperor's thoughts. In the whole world, there is only one person in Tongluo who needs to be scrupled and worried.
After all, in the final analysis, as the great general of the empire, Albus is indeed a high-ranking official, and his official rank is still higher than many civil and military ministers. It's just that Albus never opened his mouth, nor participated in court disputes and palace discussions, so many people tend to ignore him. His status is actually no less than Ge Shuhan, An Sishun, Fumeng Lingcha, Gao Xianzhi These empires hold great power and have important generals.
Manchurian civil and military, Albus was never afraid of anyone, but there was only one exception, and that person was the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty.
"My lord prime minister is kind enough to accept it. However, when Albus succeeded the head of the Tongluo clan, he swore that he would always be by the king's side and protect His Majesty's safety. Even if there are high-ranking officials and rich salary, the humble minister will never leave His Majesty! Your Majesty! Shengming, even if Albus dies, he will never leave His Majesty."
Albus drooped his head, sweating coldly.
And after Albus uttered such a poisonous oath, Manchu civil and military officials were speechless immediately. Especially Hao Yushi, who was recommended before, was even more disappointed, but he was helpless. Albus had already said that he would never leave the Holy Emperor, and whoever suggested Albus at this time would be tantamount to forcing him to die.
"oh."
At the forefront of the main hall, next to the first vermilion Beaulieu Pillar, a slender voice said "oh", but didn't say anything, stepped back slightly, and returned to the train.
"Your Majesty, if General Albus is not suitable, I would like to recommend someone. Zhangchou Jianqiong, Minister of the Ministry of War, is known as the Tiger of the Empire. He was originally the Protector of the Southwest, and has been suppressing the Southwest. He has not appeared for more than ten years. I have a lot of experience in dealing with problems. I think that if Mr. Zhangchou goes to the northwest and takes over the post of Qixi Grand Protector temporarily, Qixi'an can settle down and survive the wave."
His Highness seemed to be inspired by the prime minister. Another minister with wise eyes and good intentions seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly stepped out and said with a bow.
"Buzz!"
In the class train, Zhangchou Jianqiong was listening carefully to the arguments of the crowd, when he suddenly heard his name, Zhangchou Jianqiong trembled all over and was caught off guard, the whole person turned pale with fright, turned his head abruptly, and saw a The officer of the Ministry of War was looking at him with a kind smile on his face. At that moment, Zhangchou Jianqiong's face turned green.
Zhou Cheng!
Zhangchou Jianqiong recognized at a glance that this was a third-rank official under the command of the Ministry of War. When I first entered the Ministry of War, this guy served tea and water, tried his best to please, and was completely different from others. Zhangchou Jianqiong could feel that this guy really had good intentions, but it was precisely this that made Zhangchou Jianqiong even more angry.
"This bastard, does he even know what he's doing?"
Zhangchou Jianqiong gritted his teeth in his heart, furious, he managed to enter the capital from the frontier, and sat on the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, how could he go far and near to become a governor of Qixi. He may think that he is only a temporary representative and can come back after a while, but can the position of Minister of the Ministry of War be "temporarily vacant"? I'm afraid it won't be long, when he comes back, the Minister of War has already changed to someone else.
"Your Majesty, no, I have already held the position of Minister of War, and I am absolutely no longer suitable for other positions!"
Zhangchou Jianqiong hurried out of the queue, bowed his head and said in a loud voice.
"Your Majesty, I also think that Mr. Zhangchou is not good, so I recommend Liu Xiwei, the general of blood captives!"
"Your Majesty, I recommend Jin Yuping, the general who breaks the army!"
"No! Your Majesty, I recommend Long Qianfan, the frontier general, and I think he is more suitable!"
...
In the main hall, the voices of debate kept coming and going, and when one person spoke, the others immediately "expressed their opinions" and recommended their own people who had been thought of in advance. The hall was in chaos. King Song stood in the hall, watching the officials arguing, frowning more and more, and finally couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
...
While the imperial court was scrambling over the candidate for the new Qixi Governor, on the other side, in the distant city of steel, Wang Chong ushered in a completely unexpected event.
"Master Hou, there is a barbarian outside asking to see him, saying that he has something important to discuss."
In the morning, when Wang Chong was having breakfast, a scout rushed in.
"oh?"
Wang Chong's eyes flickered for a moment, and he was greatly surprised. Almost all the people in the City of Steel are Han Chinese, and he knows only a handful of Hu people. He really can't think of anyone who would look for him at this time:
"Did the man say his name?"
"It seems...it seems to be called Hulu Yege."
The scout hesitated for a moment and then said.
"What?!"
Wang Chong was startled and stood up abruptly.
"Warning, the host's mission, Datang's war horse, is about to fail. The host only has one chance to save it. If the mission fails, 2000 destiny energy points will be deducted."
At this moment, the familiar voice of Stone of Destiny suddenly sounded in his mind. Hearing this voice, Wang Chong was shocked and completely unprepared.
"What's going on here? Didn't Huluyege give him advice and make him change? How could such a big problem suddenly arise?"
No matter how slow Wang Chong's reaction was, he knew that something had happened to Hulu Yege, and it was about to threaten his deal with his horse.
"Where is he? Take me to see."
Wang Chong immediately said without hesitation.
Just outside an inn in the City of Steel, Wang Chong saw Hulu Yege, whom he had not seen for a long time. He was leading a horse, wearing a single shirt, looking anxious and fidgeting. When Wang Chong came over, he kept looking around, as if he was still looking at where he would come from.
"Kuruyege."
Wang Chong just yelled, and Hulu Yege immediately trembled and turned his head abruptly. At that moment, Wang Chong finally saw his face. Hulu Yege's eyes were sunken, his cheekbones were prominent, and he looked haggard and lost a lot of weight.
"Wang Chong, great, you're finally here!"
Seeing Wang Chong, Hulu Yege seemed to see a savior. He looked excited and rushed over with big strides:
"Help me, you, you must save me! Otherwise, I will really die this time..."
Hulu Yege's eyes were red, his lips trembled, and he almost knelt down.
"Kuruyege, don't worry, let's sit down inside, and then you tell me what's going on."
Wang Chong supported Hulu Yege's shoulders and comforted him.
"Go get him some hot tea."
Wang Chong turned his head and signaled to the scouts behind him. Huluyege seemed to be greatly frightened, and drinking a cup of hot tea could help him calm down and let him calm down.
