Gao Anxiang's words obviously didn't want Ling Yun to be knighted. Not to mention Gao Anxiang, there were several officials in the Jinluan Palace who were willing to see Ling Yun knighted, but they just didn't want to be the first to stand up.
Therefore, when Gao Anxiang opened his mouth, someone else immediately stood up and echoed, "Your Majesty, what Gao Shangshu said is right. Ling Yun is a guilty person. Although he has made military exploits, how can he be granted a title so easily? This sets a precedent, and he will have military exploits in the future.
If a person commits a crime, will he use his military exploits to absolve himself of the crime?"
The person who spoke was Lu Guangyuan, the official of the imperial court.

There is no grudge between Lu Guangyuan and Ling Yun. It's just that the last time Ling Yun sold fans, he didn't sell them to him and held a grudge. When he heard that Ling Yun had captured Tujia Fort yesterday, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth. When he saw Gao Anxiang stand up, he
Not willing to be lonely either.
As the saying goes, jealousy changes people beyond recognition, and Lu Guangyuan is probably this type.
Qiu Yingcai raised this question, and except for a few ministers who had a good impression of Ling Yun, they agreed. Most of the people in the palace strongly opposed Ling Yun's ennoblement. There were even some naysayers who felt that there was no need to award a reward at all.
The merits of one battle are offset by the mistakes of the last time, that is, no reward or punishment. At the worst, Ling Yun can be sent back to Beijing from Nanyi Prefecture.
The proposal to let Ling Yun return to the capital was directly scolded by He Yushan, the right minister. He could only hear him staring at the person who said this, "That's nonsense. Local officials who have served less than three years are not allowed to return to the capital. As the capital of Zuoqian, you are
Censor, don’t you even understand this?”
Lin Qizhi, the censor of Zuoqiandu, turned pale when he heard this.
When Emperor Qianxi heard this, his face was slightly startled. He glanced at He Yushan thoughtfully before returning to normal, but there was an extra layer of worry in his eyes.
There were endless arguments in the court, and Emperor Qianxi said with an unhappy face, "Quiet!"
The audience quickly fell silent, and Emperor Qianxi said again, "Since no good decision has been reached through discussion, Prime Minister Zuo will take the lead on this matter and the result of the discussion will be presented within three days."
After finishing speaking, he said expressionlessly, "Retreat from the court!"
This is how the morning ended.

After retiring from the court, Emperor Qianxi was the first to leave. Xiao Lizi did not leave with him. Instead, after Emperor Qianxi left, he stopped the left minister Wang Yangyu, whispered a few words softly, and then handed him the imperial edict he had drafted before.
Three days later, Wang Yangyu entered the palace and asked to see Emperor Qianxi.
In the imperial study room, Wang Yangyu immediately presented the results of the discussions with the six departments.
Xiao Lizi immediately walked away from Emperor Qianxi, took the memorial from Wang Yangyu, and then respectfully presented the memorial to Emperor Qianxi.
Emperor Qianxi looked calm and did not open it in a hurry. Instead, he motioned to Xiao Lizi to place it on the royal desk. Then he looked at Wang Yangyu and said straight to the point, "I wonder if the imperial edict that Xiao Lizi gave to the left prime minister has any results.
"
When Wang Yangyu heard this, he stood up in a hurry and said, "Your Majesty, this... the advice given by the six ministries states that local officials who have served for less than three years are not allowed to return to Beijing, so..."
Wang Yangyu's answer was hesitant. Emperor Qianxi could not help but feel cold when he heard what it meant. He said, "So, my will has not been passed?"
Wang Yangyu was horrified and his pores stood up. In order to prevent Emperor Qianxi from being angry, he could only say vaguely, "Your Majesty, I will not pass it for now..."
Emperor Qianxi snorted coldly, "Huh! It hasn't passed yet. To put it nicely, doesn't it just mean that it can't be passed?"
Then he shouted loudly, "Tell me, whose idea was it?"
Wang Yangyu did not hide anything and said directly, "Your Majesty, most of the others have the same idea as the Prime Minister said."
When Emperor Qianxi heard this, he lowered his head and sneered twice, "He Yushan, haha..."
What Wang Yangyu meant was not only that He Yushan disagreed with, but other people in the six departments also agreed with He Yushan's proposal.
Emperor Qianxi did not speak, because he knew that the Sixth Ministry refused to pass because he did not want Ling Yun to return to the capital, and he himself could not avoid the Sixth Ministry and transfer Ling Yun back directly, so he had no choice but to remain silent.
Emperor Qianxi, who had been silent for a long time and was unhappy, looked at the memorial on the stage again.
When he opened the memorial and read it, he was shocked and asked angrily, "Prime Minister Zuo, is this the result of your three days of deliberations?"
"You...are really good, amazing, amazing..."
"Capture Tumu Fort and open up territory for me to expand the territory. The result of your discussion is nothing more than to incorporate Tujia Fort into Nanyi Prefecture, thereby changing Nanyi Prefecture to Nanyi Prefecture, and Ling Yun, who accomplished this feat, was appointed as the prefect of Nanyi Prefecture. , you...hehe."
Emperor Qianxi was so angry that he threw the memorial in his hand at Wang Yangyu's face and shouted, "What nonsense, what nonsense!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Wang Yangyu immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty, calm down!"

"Calm down, haha... I asked you to spend three days to raise such a memorial. It's fine if you don't get the title. It's fine if you don't return to the capital. You changed Nanyi Prefecture to Nanyi Prefecture. Such shameless practices, you It’s actually possible.”
"Your Majesty, Ling Yun is a person who is ready to be punished. Moreover, there is one level between the prefect and the prefect..."
"Shut up!"
"Wang Yangyu, how dare you speak such arrogant words? Are you trying to chill the hearts of millions of our soldiers?"
"You led 20,000 troops and captured the Tujia Fort. With such military exploits, you are so shameless. Tell me, what is the difference between the Nanyi Prefecture and the Nanyi Prefecture?"
"Between the two, there is an extra Tujia Fort. You guys are really good at it!"
"His Majesty…"
Wang Yangyu wanted to explain, but the angry Emperor Qianxi didn't want to hear it. He drank directly and then threatened, "Stop, I will give you one more day, if you can't come up with a result that satisfies me and all the officers and soldiers." , the eight of you... think about how to become officials!"
After saying this, Wang Yangyu's face turned pale, and at the same time he looked puzzled. He didn't understand why Emperor Qianxi was like this. This result was decided by the six departments, which was a bit extreme. If it didn't work, just discuss it again. How could he want to directly kill Emperor Qianxi? He was so angry that he even threatened his ministers, which is really incomprehensible.
Emperor Qianxi didn't care what Wang Yangyu thought. After speaking, he directly waved his sleeves and motioned him to leave with his eyes.
Finally, don't forget to warn him that if the result of the negotiation does not satisfy him after one day, they will bear the consequences.
Wang Yangyu smiled bitterly and left the imperial study.
When he returned to the Sixth Department, he was cursing. When everyone saw this, they immediately gathered around and asked what happened.
Wang Yangyu opened his eyes angrily, glared at them fiercely, and then told them exactly what Emperor Qianxi meant. When he learned that Emperor Qianxi was furious and would not hesitate to threaten them with official duties, everyone's expressions changed with shock, and they exchanged words with each other. Their eyes met, but they said nothing.
Wang Yangyu looked at the silent crowd and was furious. He snorted coldly, blew his beard and glared, "Huh! The truth has been clear from the beginning that this plan will never work, and the military attachés in charge are all watching this matter.
, you must be like this, why don't you speak now... are you mute? "
Then he looked at Qiu Yingcai dissatisfied and said, "Qiu Yingcai, you are the Minister of War. Please say something."
Qiu Yingcai was startled and immediately cleared the air and said, "Mr. Zuo Xiang, this matter has nothing to do with the official. The official made it clear and clear in the court that Ling Yun's military exploits can be awarded as a rule.
Sir, you insist on saying it can't be done, but since it can't be done, then I have nothing to say."
After Wang Yangyu heard the words, he thought for a moment and found that the facts were as he said. It was hard to say anything at the moment. He turned around and glared at Gao Anxiang, the anger in his eyes was self-evident.
In the final analysis, I blame him for this matter.
"Lord Zuo Xiang, no wonder this official is here."

When everyone heard this, they sneered and thought to themselves: How could this happen if it wasn't for him being the one who got in the way?
Facing the disdainful looks from everyone, Gao Anxiang didn't take it seriously, but he still felt a little guilty. He glanced at He Yushan subconsciously. When he found that the latter nodded slightly towards him, he felt confident, so he calmly said without changing his expression,
"The lower official disagrees with Master Qiu's proposal. There is a reason for this, so he says that Ling Yun is a guilty person. How can a guilty person be knighted?"
