The first person to speak was Chang Yuchun, who had a bad temper.
"All of your civil servants are loyal and patriotic, but our military attachés are all traitors with ulterior motives, right?"
Looking at Chang Yuchun who was like an iron tower, Yang Xian was not afraid at all, and hummed: "You said this yourself, I didn't say it!"
"You didn't say, what did you just say? What do you mean our generals have different intentions and want to occupy the island and become king?"
"What I'm talking about is just one of the possibilities! It's a vast ocean, and the court can't supervise it. Who can know what the generals are doing outside?"
"Haha, are you using unfounded accusations to throw dirt on our military attache, right?" Lan Yu also spoke.
"I'm not throwing dirty water here, but I'm just stating a fact. Throughout the dynasties, all frontier generals with heavy troops in their hands will inevitably have different intentions if they lack the control of the court.
On land, those border generals are difficult to control, let alone the boundless ocean!"
"You traitor, I will beat you to death!"
Lan Yu couldn't control her temper all of a sudden. You asked them to take out their knives and kill people, but then they started arguing with the civil servants and said unceremoniously that all the generals present together were not enough to attack Yang Xian alone.
Seeing Lan Yu charging forward with her fists raised, Yang Xian didn't even mean to retreat, instead he laughed.
"Did you see that? You generals dare to beat the court officials in front of His Majesty. If you go outside and there is no restraint, what can't you do?"
As soon as these words came out, Xu Da quickly stepped forward to pull Lan Yu back.
Although Yang Xian is a hateful person, one thing he said is right. If he really dared to fight in the court in front of His Majesty today, wouldn't their military attachés be convinced that they are lawless outside?
Song Xuan glanced at Yang Xian. This guy was really a thorn. The civil and military situation, which was originally relatively stable, was suddenly stirred up by his few words.
But if you want to say that he committed something, he really didn't commit anything. On the contrary, what he said was quite right.
It is undeniable that the probability of taking over the island and becoming king is still very high.
When Song Xuan was in power, he was sure that he could suppress them, but if he were the king of later generations, who would dare to say that he would be sure that he could suppress these arrogant soldiers without even the slightest thought?
"Okay, let's stop this now!"
After taking a look at the messy court hall, Song Xuan said calmly: "We will put the matter of opening the sea on hold for the time being until there is no shortage of food and the people don't have to worry about food and clothing."
As soon as these words came out, all the generals looked a little ugly. Could it be that His Majesty really became suspicious of their military attache group because of Yang Xian's words?
"Your Majesty!" Tang He stepped out and asked, "What about supervising the construction of the navy?"
"The matter of supervising the construction of the navy continues. I just won't open the sea for the time being, but that doesn't mean I won't open the sea in the future!"
As soon as these words came out, Xu Da, Lan Yu and other senior generals finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, His Majesty is still the same as before and will not change his mind because of other people's words.
Looking around, Song Xuan's eyes majestically passed over the civil and military officials one by one, and finally he spoke in a deep voice.
"Today, I put my words here. The sea will open sooner or later. It's just a matter of time!"
"This is the century-old strategy of our Wu Dynasty. I don't care what interests you are involved in, but if anyone dares to stand in the way when the time comes, then don't blame me for not being kind to the emperor and his ministers!"
After finishing his words, his eyes finally fell on Yang Xian.
Yang Xian bowed slightly and lowered his head.
This young civil servant who dared to anger the group of generals in the court and was not even afraid of the blue jade fist actually started to tremble slightly at this moment.
An aura that he couldn't describe enveloped his body. He couldn't describe that feeling. Anyway, a sense of oppression swept through his body, as if His Majesty's single thought could tear him apart in an instant.
At this moment, he clearly felt what it means to be unpredictable in the power of God!
After a while, Song Xuan withdrew his gaze, turned around and walked back.
At the same time, the sharp voice of the chief eunuch Bingbi sounded, "Retreat from the court!"
All the officials bowed in salute and watched His Majesty leave.
Then, a group of military attachés came forward and surrounded Yang Xian.
"Why, you princes and princes want to bully a young man like me?"
Yang Xian was afraid of the emperor, but he was not afraid of these warriors at all.
Although the military attachés were powerful, their civil service system consisted of a large number of princes and princes. Moreover, His Majesty did not say anything to him before leaving. If these military attachés dared to lay a finger on him, he would dare to file a complaint on the spot.
If you want to stand out in the court of a bunch of princes, marquises and uncles, you have to use some special means.
Regardless of whether His Majesty is satisfied with him or not, at least one thing is clear to him. From now on, Yang Xian will definitely no longer be a transparent person in Your Majesty's heart.
That's enough!
Zhu Yuanzhang, the head of the military department, stood in front of Yang Xian. He looked at Yang Xian for a moment and then looked at Liu Bowen and said: "What he said in the court, did you mean it?"
Liu Bowen shook his head.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "In that case, let's let this matter go."
As he said that, he looked at Yang Xian and said: "If you want to climb up, just do your job properly. You won't get far if you rely on crooked ways!"
After saying this, Zhu Yuanzhang strode out of the palace. Lan Yu, Xu Da and others glared at Yang Xian and then left.
This is the palace hall, not really the place to do anything.
When this kid is alone later, I have to put a sack on him and beat him up!
After the military generals left, the civil servants in the hall also left one after another.
After walking out of the hall, Li Shanchang asked Liu Bowen specifically, "So Yang Xian, is it really not your order?"
"That's not true!" Liu Bowen said with a wry smile, "I really didn't expect him to be so bold as to openly provoke civil and military conflicts in the court."
Yang Xian stood behind Liu Bowen with a humble look on his face. Hearing this, he quickly bowed and said, "I'm causing trouble for you, teacher!"
Liu Bowen shook his head and said: "You are not causing trouble for me, you are causing trouble for yourself!"
Yang Xian didn't believe it.
He felt that he had done nothing wrong by provoking a civil-military dispute.
In his view, there are disputes and confrontations between civil and military forces, which is in line with His Majesty's need for checks and balances between civil and military forces, and is the best way to stabilize imperial power.
If the civil and military affairs in the court are harmonious, this is definitely not what His Majesty wants to see.
Seeing that Yang Xian was still unconvinced, Li Shanchang couldn't help but chuckle, "Master Liu, you can't accept such a clever disciple, be careful of being implicated in the future!"
After saying this, he quickly left, leaving behind Liu Bowen who looked helpless and Yang Xian who looked a little unnatural.
"Teacher, did I really do something wrong?"
Liu Bowen sighed and said: "I admire your talent and accept you as a disciple, but I didn't expect that you would be so power-seeking. Don't use this kind of eccentric approach in the future.
Believe it or not, His Majesty is already weighing whether to keep you or kill you!"
