Gao Bing was mixed with feelings and could not accept the result. He wanted to object, but when the words came to his mouth, he stopped again. He saw the unquestionable part of the emperor's eyes, which was rarely seen in the past ten years of their monarch and ministers. At this time, he immediately thought of the abnormality of the emperor's promotion of the Youzhou General Administration, except for the Sanfan Restricted Prefecture, to the general administration. He had not cared about it for a while, but suddenly thought of something.

After the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, the system of three provinces and six ministries was implemented. The emperor and the prime ministers ruled the world together. There were long-standing examples of the appointment of court officials, that is, the appointment of officials below the fifth rank and below the third rank and below the third rank are assigned to the three provinces. As for the appointment of officials above the three provinces, it has always been decided by the emperor. The state governor has a third rank, the state governor of Shangzhou, the state governor of Zhongzhou belongs to the third rank, and the state governor of Xiazhou is the fourth rank. Generally, the appointment of the state governor of the state governor

The Ministry of Personnel was nominated and approved by the three provinces to make appointments. Now that the emperor directly promoted all the prefectures of Youzhou Prefecture to the general manager, the governors of each state were appointed by Zhu Zongs, and his level had directly entered the third rank. Such a seemingly small change was equivalent to receiving the appointment power of these governors into the hands of the emperor. Even the prime minister, Zuo Pushe, as the prime minister of the Shangshu, had only one right to suggest the appointment of these governors.

The emperor came prepared. Gao Bing quickly figured out the causes and consequences. He knew that he had no doubts about this matter, or that the emperor did not intend to let him intervene. He felt a moment of sadness. As the Prime Minister of the Emperor for more than ten years, he had never expected that he was abandoned by the Emperor. If the Emperor really wanted to appoint those people, it only needed one sentence. There was no need to design like this. He would still agree with the emperor's intention. But now, the emperor used such means to deal with him, which made him feel cold. As the Prime Minister of the Emperor, he was so distrusted by the Emperor. What's the point of his continued staying in this position, or can he continue to stay in this position?

In fact, if it wasn't for the feeling that the emperor was fooled, Gao Bing would not be unacceptable to this list. Just glanced at it. He actually understood the meaning of this list. This is not the list recommended by the prince, nor the list recommended by him, nor the list recommended by Yang Su, King Jin and King Han. The core meaning of this list is only one, that is, these new general managers can actually be regarded as King Zhao. They may not have been, but they have more or less related to King Zhao. The emperor asked them to serve as general managers under King Zhao, which is undoubtedly

Gathering strength for King Zhao. Although the result was not as he expected, the Youzhou Prefecture was taken from King Jin through the Yan Rong case and a member of the prince was placed in this newly established area. But the result is still within an acceptable range. After all, isn’t King Zhao the eldest son of the prince? Now that King Zhao has become the chief general, the ten chief generals below are not King Jin, the Han King Party, even if they were not the prince party. Now even if they are King Zhao, King Zhao is still the son of the prince, and the Zhao King Party is also considered the prince party.

Gao Yang comforted himself in his heart. This was not the worst result.

"In the case of military horse smuggling in Jizhou, I have issued an order for Dali Temple to take over the investigation. At present, Dali Temple has found out that Yuwen Zhi and his mastermind have not involved Yuwen Shu. I have ordered Yuwen Zhiji to be arrested, and Yuwen Shu's salary was cut by one year and reduced his title to one level. The thousand military horses seized in Jizhou were ordered to return them to the King of Zhao, and this matter ended here." The emperor's words once again deeply hit Gao Jin. He thought hard and planned to use the military horse smuggling case as a breakthrough to launch a new wave of attacks against the King of Jin, but it was silently shattered by the emperor. With the emperor's words, the case will end here.

"I obey the order!" Gao Feng spit out these three words bitterly and bowed.

Looking at the background of Gao Yang leaving, Emperor Yang Jian sighed a long time and reached out to the table to pick up another memorial. It was a secret memorial presented by Yang Yue, the young minister of Dali Temple, and reported to the pillar of King Shiji, the relative guard general of the Shangzhu, Huangfu Xiaoxie, who reported to Wang Shiji's secret rebellion and intended to rebel. Huangfu Xiaoxie gave two pieces of evidence. One was that after Wang Shiji participated in the battle of Pingchen, he asked a very famous Taoist priest in Jiangnan to meet him and ask about his future wealth. The Taoist priest said that the prince should be the king of the country, and he also told his wife that his wife should be the queen, and Wang Shiji was very happy to reward the Taoist priest. Last year, when the emperor defeated the Eastern Conquest Army, he said that he was sick and refused to go. Later, the emperor found out that he pretended to be sick and sent him with seven hundred guards.

After taking office in Liangzhou, Wang Shiji's confidant told him that the elite troops in Hexi could do great things. Wang Shiji replied that Liangzhou was vast and rare, and it was not a country that used martial arts. In addition, Wang Shiji's confidant also reported that Wang Shiji entered the court this time and brought four sweat-blooded horses he had seized from a wealthy businessman in Liangzhou. One of them was for his own use, and the other three were given to Yuan Min, the general of the left guard, Yuan Zhou, and Gao Yang. Huangfu Xiaoxie also reported to Dali Temple that when the emperor served as the Zhou emperor, Wang Shiji had told Gao Yang that we were all ministers of Zhou and the country was destroyed. What was it like? Gao Yang did not refute and did not report a memorial.

Yang Yue's memorial also mentioned that Huangfu Xiaoxie reported many illegal matters of Wang Shiji, including embezzlement and bribery, lending and profit collection, seizing land and occupying property, etc.

Yang Jian didn't care much about these. Wang Shi accumulated a member of the Shangzhu Kingdom and several famous generals. Greedy bribery cannot be the reason for dealing with him. For the emperor, after officials reached a certain level, these are not important issues. The most important thing is their loyalty. As long as they can be loyal, greedy bribery will not become a problem as long as they are within a certain limit. And if they are not loyal, even if they have the ability to be honest and fair, they cannot be tolerated by the emperor.

And Wang Shiji has now violated both.

What Yang Jian could not tolerate was that his ministers had two hearts, not to mention that Wang Shiji was a major general of the dynasty. Yang Yue reported the memorial that Dali Temple had investigated many parties about Huangfu Xiaoxie's report on Wang Shiji. It has been proved that what Huangfu Xiaoxie said that Wang Shiji invited Taoist priests to meet and what he said to his subordinates when he was in Liangzhou are true, and some evidence can be proved. The incident of Wang Shiji giving Yuan Min Yuan Zhou Gao Jin and three sweat-blooded horses is also true. As for whether Wang Shiji had ever said to Gao Jin about the words of our ministers who were all around us, it cannot be verified for the time being. However, Wang Shiji is indeed closely related to Gao Jin and often has gifts. Wang Shiji accepts bribes, lends, seizes land, and possesses property.

Yang Jian stared at the memorial coldly, and he believed that Yang Yue would not deceive him. Moreover, he had sent someone else to verify that the report of Huangfu Xiaoxie by Yang Yue was basically true. Wang Shiji deserves to die. He had already convicted Wang Shiji in his heart and could be executed at any time with these exact evidence. But what made Yang Jian hesitant is whether to deal with only Wang Shiji or just make a major case like the Yan Rong case.

I really want to make this case a big case, have a big purge, and execute those damn guys without leaving any left. However, the matter has already involved several important figures. In addition to the generals of the left and right guards, they also involved Gao Yang, and a large number of important officials of the prince's system involved them. Yang Jian has realized that behind the Wang Shiji case, it is probably not that simple. Under the surface of this case, I am afraid that another battle between the princes will be made.

Gao Yang, Gao Yang, Yang Jian sighed and finally shook his head. At this time, he could not take down Gao Yang, or even Yuan Min Yuanzhou. Although they should have taken down, if they had just experienced the cleansing of the Yan Rong case, if they had to clean up again, I was afraid that the court would be in chaos. This was extremely unfavorable to the upcoming northern war, and it might even make things out of control. For the sake of the Northern Expedition, he had to control this matter first.

Let Gao Yang be the first to let him go. But Yang Jian was becoming more and more disgusted with the Prime Minister who had trusted for more than ten years. He secretly said in his heart that when the news of the Northern Expedition of Turks came, it was the time when he was exempted from Gao Yang.

"Come here, summon Yang Yue, the young minister of Dali Temple, to the palace to meet immediately!" Yang Jian said to the eunuch who came forward to listen to the order. Gao Bing can stay away for the time being. But Wang Shiji must deal with it immediately.

When Yi Feng left Ganlu Palace, he pulled Li Yuan and Yang Yichen aside and said to the two with a smile: "Tell me a good news to you, the Duke of Tang will soon become the general manager of Yizhou, and Duke of Qin Xing will become the general manager of Tanzhou."

Li Yuan and Yang Yichen were both happy when they heard this, and then said a little disbelief, "Don't be happy with us, King Zhao." Li Yuan said, "I am just a 16th-rank Qianniu, just a guard. If Your Highness says I will become a town general, I believe it, but I can't believe it." Yang Yichen also nodded repeatedly. Although both of them had great hopes in their hearts. As members of the Guanlong nobles, they all inherited the merits made by their fathers, but in their hearts they had great hopes that they could leave the town, command the troops, do a grand career, shine their families, and make achievements.

"I have told you the good news. If you believe it or not, it will be up to you. But whether you believe it or not, this matter will come out of my mouth and you will hear it. But no one will know about it anymore." After saying that, Yi Feng smiled and turned around and left, leaving only Li Yuan and Yang Yichen who were looking at each other.

"It seems that this matter should be true." Yang Yichen whispered.

"Maybe." Li Yuan nodded, and had already believed in this matter in his heart. When he thought that he would soon become the governor of Yizhou, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel excited. He finally left this palace and no longer had to wear this thousand-magic sword all day long. He could only act as a guard, and he could make achievements.

After Yi Feng left the palace and returned to the palace, Chen Wu made tea for Yi Feng while talking about Yuwen Yubo.

"What is your plan? Do you really want to hide your spouse in the golden house? That is a county princess, and it is impossible for him to be a concubine for you." Chen Hua said while making tea, "You are afraid you don't know yet. Now the Princess Guangping's mansion is in chaos. The princess sent people to look for his daughter everywhere, and the trouble in the capital was a mess. The Prince's Mansion and the Prince Jin Mansion also sent people to search for him. This matter has now become a joke in the capital. There are all kinds of things, such as King Changning and the King of Henan fighting for a princess, and there is also a saying that the princess elopes with the groom in the palace. There is even a rumor that the princess was hidden by King Zhao's golden house."

"Oh, so someone already knows that the princess is in our mansion." Yi Feng frowned, "It seems that I'm going to come to the door."

"Is it time to send the princess back? It's okay to have fun. If someone really comes to me, it will be bad at that time."

"It depends on her own meaning. Since I asked her to stay, I can't drive her away now." Yi Feng shook his head.

Yi Feng actually admires Yuwen Yubo. He came from such a wealthy family, but he still dared to work hard to fight for his love and freedom. However, he gave up on his emotional purity and persistence for other things and compromised.

"Well, I'll go see her. If you have time, go and spend more time with her. I guess she won't feel very happy during this period." After Yi Feng said that, he stood up and went to Meiyuan.

Chen Wu watched Yi Feng go away, picked up the hot tea that he had just brewed for Yi Feng but had not had time to drink a sip of it, and slowly savored it. Princess Lechang walked out of the house and smiled and said to her, "Girl, do you know that Yuwen Yubo's ghost woman is not as simple as it seems. When she comes, it's not easy for her to leave again. But when you say such words at this time, you really think that things are not messy enough."

Chen Hua smiled at his aunt: "So what? Anyway, I'm just a four-person, not even a Zhao prince, but just a Zhao prince. If Yuwen Yubo really wants to stay here and not leave, how much does it matter to me? The one who really needs to be anxious should be the princess of Heyin County at the Xiangguo princess's mansion."

Princess Lechang felt a little sad: "You silly girl, how could you think like this? Ling Yun is an excellent man. There will naturally be more men and women like this, but no matter what, you are really willing to share with you more women? You have to find a way to enclose your territory and set up a fence."

Chen Wu shook his head and chuckled: "How could a heroic man like King Zhao be bound by the woman in the back house?"

"But you can't push him into the arms of another woman."

"Even if I don't push it, others will get involved." Chen Hua poured a cup of tea for Princess Lechang and handed it over.

"Are you talking about Hongfu?" Princess Lechang said a little embarrassedly. Hongfu was originally a child she met when she was in Yang Su's mansion, and was both from Nanchen. This time she returned to Daxing, Hongfu came to see her several times, and she liked the child more and more. She even recognized her as her goddaughter. This was a good thing. Hongfu often came here every now and then. At first, Princess Lechang was very happy, but immediately she found that something was wrong. Hongfu came too frequently, and every time she came, she always used an excuse to find Ling Yun. No matter what she did, she found something tricky.

"I'm sorry for you in this matter." Princess Lechang sighed.

"Auntie, don't say that. Without Zhang Chuchen, there would be Li Chuchen. What's so surprising about this? However, it's rare to be as bold as Hongfu. Princess Yuwen is much worse than Hongfu in this regard. I think it's very interesting now. I wonder which of these two can take the lead?" Chen Hua said playfully. Princess Lechang sighed when she saw Chen Hua's heartless appearance. Since she didn't care, what else could she say?

The window was not broken, but the electricity was stopped. I called in the evening and coded this chapter to send it.
