Chapter 2649 I Will Keep an Eye on You Even if I Die
General Cheng looked at the hidden stake that delivered the message and asked: "Brother, please tell your majesty that if your majesty needs it, Cheng Chong will lead his army to King Qin in Beijing at any time!"
An Zhuang said: "I will bring the words to you at the end. It's just that Your Majesty said that General Cheng's important task is to guard Long'an Mansion, assist the Marquis of Qin in protecting the northwest, and then strengthen his troops and prepare to destroy the army."
General Cheng frowned: "Your Majesty, you still want to destroy the army?"
An Zhuang nodded: "Well, destroying the Rong is your Majesty's long-cherished wish. Your Majesty said that destroying the Rong is related to the peace of our descendants, so no matter whether he lives or dies, no matter whether the country changes hands, the destroying of the Rong must be carried out. Go down."
General Cheng was shocked when he heard this. He looked at the hidden stake and after a while, he made a promise: "Please tell your Majesty that Cheng Chong's ambition for the rest of his life is to destroy the Rong!"
"Thank you, General Cheng." An Zhuang said, then looked at Qin Sanlang: "Qin Hou, after daybreak, the general will send the news to the capital."
This is to tell Qin Sanlang that if he wants to go back on his word, he should give the letter before dawn. Once the secret report is sent after dawn, His Majesty will take action. If he wants to be the emperor again, he can only rely on his own ability to grab it.
Qin Sanlang understood: "Well, I know...what is your name?"
After hearing this, Anzhuang frowned. Although it was against the rules, he still said his name: "Chu Li, named after the place where he lurks."
Qin Sanlang took out a Qin family token and threw it to Chu Li: "Take it, the Wei family won't dare to stop you. If you have nowhere to go in the future, come to me in the northwest. I can let you join the army and give you A bright and smooth road.”
Chu Li was very grateful: "Thank you very much."
After saying that, he left quickly without staying any longer.
On the mountain, General Xiao Liu had been waiting in full array, but when it was dawn, the Marquis of Qin did not attack the mountain, so he finally felt relieved... It seems that Mu Geer still thought of the friendship between the Wei family and chose not to embarrass the Wei family.
General Xiao Liu sent the good news that Qin Sanlang did not attack Mushan to Wei Qi and Wei Xiao, asking them to also think of Qin Sanlang's good things.
General Xiao Liu was relieved, but this night was extremely difficult for Qin Sanlang. He hugged Gu Jinli's clothes tightly, the medicine bag she made, and the little stuffed dolls of Big Wolf and Two Wolf, which made him feel better... He just hoped that these messy things could end soon so that he could go back soon. Go to the little fish.
…
In the capital, the Wei family army and Emperor Jingyuan were still arguing about the positions of civil servants and generals. Finally, Wei Xiao couldn't stand it anymore and said: "The capable ones will take over. If they are incompetent, even if all the Wei family's henchmen occupy the court, it doesn't matter." It’s not good for this country. Stop talking about it and just follow what we discussed today!”
This is fair to say, the generals are fine, but the civil servants of the Wei family are almost angry to death.
Guo Lu said: "King Xiao Wei, wouldn't this be advantageous to the courtiers on Emperor Jingyuan's side?"
Giving up half of the court to the officials of the old court, this kind of thing can be tolerated by the people of the new court!
Wei Xiao sneered: "When the Wei family gains power, everyone will be the ministers of the Wei dynasty. How can we say who is taking advantage?"
He also said: "Those who cannot do it will be given positions only based on closeness and proximity. Can the person who gets the position be able to shoulder the responsibility? If you are asked to be the cabinet elder, do you have the ability? If you think you can do it, my uncle and I can You are asked to be the Pavilion Elder, but if you don’t do your job well, the result will be that the whole family will be executed. Are the necks of your Guo family all washed and waiting to be executed!”
this?
Guo Lu didn't dare to speak anymore and looked at Wei Qi aggrievedly.
Before Wei Qi spoke, Wei Xiao reminded: "Uncle, the army led by Shangguange Lao and Cheng Chong has arrived at the foot of Mu Mountain, which is only ten days away from the capital. If we continue, let alone the country, we will be destroyed both internally and externally. Attack from a flank and be completely defeated!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was frightened.
so……
Wei Xiao said: "Just stop it when you see fit, don't be pretentious!"
Wei Qi hurriedly said: "Brother Xiao is right. Now it is important to win the country first. As for the arrangement of the official positions in the court, after the Wei family wins the country, they will definitely not treat you badly. Moreover, there will not be many Wei family members, so they will all be used up. If you can’t fill the entire court, don’t worry, just follow what we discussed today.”
After talking about it for so many days, today we have talked about... five pavilion elders, two from the Wei family, and two from the old dynasty. One will be left vacant until the new emperor ascends the throne, and then a wise man that both parties are satisfied with will be chosen to serve.
The six most important departments, namely Bing, Hu, and Li, are all managed by people from the Wei family and serve as ministers.
The Ministry of Industry was left to the Ning family.
In the Ministry of Rites, Ouyang Zhang is still the minister and concurrently the elder of the cabinet.
The Ministry of Punishment was handed over to Mr. Feng. This position was debated for a long time, and finally Mr. Feng came forward to take it personally.
He was a benefactor of the Wei family, and he came forward to recommend himself. Wei Qi felt that Mr. Feng was leaning towards the Wei family, so he had no objection and agreed to let him become the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.
However, do you think why Mr. Feng recommended himself to be the Minister of Punishment? Naturally, he wanted to personally supervise the case of the murder of Wei Guogong and his family.
In addition to the six divisions, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, the Fuhu Army, and the Yulin Army were all handed over to the Wei Army. As for the original old generals, they could be disarmed and return to their fields, or they could serve in the Ministry of War, various places, or in the northwest.
The next day, when they negotiated again, due to the Wei family's concession, the affairs arranged by the civil servants and military generals were finally settled.
After the two parties signed the document, they began to negotiate other conditions.
In addition to the appointment and dismissal of civil servants and generals on both sides, other conditions, such as the new dynasty not to kill officials of the old dynasty, and the female relatives of the Chu Dynasty to build villas in and around the city, are all easy to negotiate.
The only condition that made Wei Qi angry was that the emperor of the new dynasty was not allowed to randomly grant marriages to people, mess up the mandarin duck genealogy, and was not allowed to condone such things as stopping wives and remarrying, doting on concubines, killing wives, and replacing concubines with heirs. You cannot get married within three generations of your family!
It effectively eliminated Wei Qi's desire to wait until Emperor Jingyuan died so that he could abuse the daughter of the Chu family.
And this is nothing, what really scares Wei Qi is the last condition: after Emperor Jingyuan dies, he must first be buried in Xiushan in the imperial city, and he will not be moved until the case of Wei Guogong and his family is investigated. He wanted to go to Longshan tomb, and he wanted to watch the bandits being exterminated on the Longshan Mountains!
Because of this last condition, Wei Qi had a nightmare that night. He dreamed that the truth about that year was found out, and he was killed on the dragon throne by the angry officials of the new and old dynasties. His head was chopped off and he rolled down to the throne. At Wei Xiao's feet, he was crushed by Wei Xiao's foot.
"Ah!" Wei Qi screamed in horror and woke up from the nightmare, his whole body soaked in cold sweat.
General Yuan heard the sound and rushed in personally, asking: "What's wrong with King Wei? But are you worried that Emperor Jingyuan will regret it tomorrow?"
After talking for half a month, tomorrow is the day when Emperor Jingyuan will meet with King Wei and formally issue the decree to hand over the country to King Wei. It is normal for King Wei to be worried.
Wei Qi is not worried about this, he is afraid that the truth of that year will be discovered!
But he couldn't tell the truth, so he could only nod and said: "Well, Chu Hao is a madman and capricious. I am worried that things will cause new twists and turns tomorrow."
General Yuan frowned when he heard this, and wanted to say... Judging from those hundred conditions, Emperor Jingyuan was actually not crazy, and even had a broad mind and a great talent.
Just because a person without talent and ambition cannot do anything to give up the country, this one thing alone is enough for Emperor Jingyuan to leave a heavy mark in the history of history.
And even if the Wei family overthrew Dachu, generations of kings from the Wei family would have to be grateful to Emperor Jingyuan for abdicating his throne!
Hiss, General Yuan took a breath. Why does he feel that sitting on the throne of the Wei family is so uncomfortable and not majestic at all?
