As the Ministry of Personnel official finished speaking, dozens of ministers who had been kneeling before His Highness came out to second their opinions.
This moment also surprised many ministers, including Xiao Han.
In just a few days, the Wang family seems to have attracted many more people than last time!
As for Xiao Han, besides being surprised, he was also a little weird.
Because he didn't know whether he should admire Hou Junji and the Wang family for their strong political power, or whether he should laugh at these people's stupidity.
Is this a remonstrance? This is obviously a threat!
Help the noble family and put pressure on the emperor!
Not to mention Emperor Wu, who was arrogant and arrogant like Xiao Lizi and was not short of means and strategies.
Even if it were a weaker Emperor Wen, he probably wouldn't be able to tolerate this situation!
What I give to you is yours! What I don’t give to you, you can’t come and snatch it away! This is the true intention of an emperor!
Sure enough, when Li Shimin, who was sitting high on the throne, faced the chorus of dozens of people, his expression did not change at all. Even his expression was the same as Gu Jing Wubo just now.
However, people who know him well know that these are just appearances! For example, Changsun Wuji and others who are closer have seen the anger in Li Shimin's eyes!
"Hey, are these people really stupid?"
In the queue of civil servants, Gao Shilian touched Xue Shou beside him with his arm and asked in a low voice.
Xue Shuang glanced sideways at Gao Shilian, sneered, and then hummed in a voice that only two people could hear: "These people are not stupid!"
"Aren't you stupid?" Gao Shilian grinned and said, "Aren't you stupid enough to grab that hot spot over and over again?"
Xue Shou continued to sneer: "Humph! I'm afraid they don't want to snatch it! But since His Majesty defeated Jie Li, they can no longer sit still!"
"Jieli? Turks?" Gao Shilian was a little stunned: "Are they connected with Turks?"
"Whether there is a connection or not, it's hard to say! But even if there is a connection, they have probably cleaned up their tails these days!" Xue Shou's eyes flickered, he glanced at the dozens of ministers in front of him, and whispered:
"What really makes them fearful and uneasy is His Majesty's next step!"
"Next step?"
Gao Shilian frowned and glanced at Xue Shou, and then suddenly he was shocked. He pointed to the north as if in disbelief: "They don't think that His Majesty wants to..."
"Haha, what's wrong with this!" Xue Ting laughed: "His Majesty is so talented and has a great strategy, and this time he has defeated the Turks with the remaining power of victory! It is normal for them to think like this! You must know that once Your Majesty wants to move over there, their Shandong clan will
, must be the first to suffer!
Even though the Wang family has already moved south, their roots are still in that land! If there is chaos there, their so-called family heritage will be scattered!"
"Hiss... Is this so complicated?!" Gao Shilian unconsciously tugged at his beard and grinned: "So they are trying their best this time to win the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, just to stop this
Something happened!”
"That's probably true, otherwise it would be difficult to explain why they were suddenly so concerned about the Ministry of War!"
"Then, what do you think His Majesty will do?"
"Your Majesty will agree this time! Those aristocratic families still underestimated your Majesty. Your Majesty could still endure the humiliation of the Weishui Alliance for three years, let alone that place! But next time, it will be hard to say!"
Xue Shou said very firmly because he knew Li Shimin too well!
My own emperor can fight, dares to fight, and is good at fighting! But he is not warlike! In other words, he is not as warlike as the previous Emperor Sui Yang!
Now that the world is finally settled, and the Turks, a serious concern, have just been eliminated! What Li Shimin will do next is to recuperate.
As for those aristocratic families who are worried about, although they are not without worries, it is obviously not time yet!
The world is unified, the oceans and rivers are clear!
This is what Li Shimin will definitely do in the future, but it is not what he must do now!
He is still young, Datang is still young, and they all have time to wait! There is no need to seize the day!
What happened next was not as Xue Shou expected.
After a moment of silence, Li Shimin finally agreed to these people's begging.
When a faint "Alright" sounded in the court hall, the prostrate people all breathed a sigh of relief. When they looked at each other, they all saw the deep ecstasy in each other's eyes!
Sure enough, I made the right bet this time! The power of the aristocratic family is still strong, strong enough to determine the emperor's choice to a certain extent!
However, when they were ecstatic with each other, no one saw the faint sarcasm in Li Shimin's eyes!
The position of Minister of the Ministry of War was confirmed, and Hou Junji, who had been silent in the queue of military attachés, immediately walked out and accepted the emperor's reward.
When the big seal that he had been looking forward to day and night was brought to him, no matter how calm Hou Junji was, his outstretched hand could not help but tremble twice.
Minister of the Ministry of War! The first person in the Ministry of War! This position that originally belonged to Li Jing was finally his turn!
The appointment certificate was issued, and today's court meeting was basically over.
Seeing Hou Junji returning with the big seal, many people finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although everything that happened before was messed up by Xiao Han, fortunately, the ending was good, at least they achieved their expected goal.
Only a few officials who originally wanted to show their loyalty to their master and impeach Xiao Han felt a little regretful.
Alas, the impeachment memorial prepared all night last night was in vain again? Who would have thought that Xiao Han would come to court in such a state! If he dared to impeach again, wouldn't he be afraid of being beaten even worse than him?
Of course, what they don't know is: Xiao Han is also a little depressed now!
I thought that someone would definitely provoke me today, and I even prepared weapons.
But why are these people so cowardly? Are they still officials of the Tang Dynasty? They are not bloody at all! They can't jump out and then be beaten to death by themselves...
"Sanchao..."
Li Shimin left the hall, and then the eunuch's sharp voice sounded in the hall.
"Hey, it's gone, it's gone! My legs hurt!"
Many ministers breathed a sigh of relief and stood up from the ground. While complaining that futons were used here for such a long time and thinking about what happened in the court hall today, they walked outside in pairs.
"Hold on, Lord Xiao. Your Majesty has ordered your servants to invite Lord Hou to the Qianqiu Palace." At this moment, Xiao Han also walked out with the crowd, but when he was halfway there, a chamberlain behind him suddenly caught up with him and hurriedly said to him.
He handed it over.
"Oh, I got it!" Xiao Han glanced at the waiter and agreed. He was not surprised. After all, he had guessed that Li Shimin would come to him from the beginning.
"Xiao Hou!"
Just when Xiao Han stopped, Hou Junji also came over and bowed his hand to Xiao Han with a kind face: "Brother, I am hosting a banquet today. If you don't mind, please come over and have a chat with Brother Xiao!"
"Have a chat with the government?"
This time, Xiao Han was not as happy as he promised to Hou Junji.
He first looked Hou Junji up and down, and then suddenly laughed: "Let's forget it. I'm too young to be called your brother. Besides, I'm most afraid of being stabbed in the back."
