Shi Yue looked at Tian Fen with a proud look on his face and continued to exert pressure: "Deputy Tian is versatile in both civil and military affairs and can play any role competently. Shi is really envious. There is a saying that goes well, I am a brick.
Move wherever you need it! Deputy Tian is the brick that cannot be moved. You can move it anywhere, right, Deputy Tian?"
Tian Fen heard Shi Yue's sarcasm, and his heart clenched in pain - Damn it, you are just a fucking brick, this guy's mouth is really bad! But after all, he is a very tough-minded person.
After the initial zombie-like pain and shock, my mind began to come alive again.
His original intention was to fear that Shi Yue would expand his army, which would be extremely unfavorable to his situation. After discussing with Xiao Yan, it evolved into the idea that not only could Shi Yue not be allowed to expand his army, but also that Shi Yue should be disarmed, and that he should be made a polished commander! So, with
The national treasury was empty, and the conspiracy to reduce military expenditures emerged.
But he didn't expect that after a dispute, not only did Shi Yue's army not be laid off, but he was sent to the guillotine in a daze, waiting to be beheaded alive.
——This idea of disarmament was thought up by Xiao Yan.
Nowadays, Xiao Yan is the spear and he is the shield. After this competition, whether the "hair" pierced the shield or the shield blocked the spear, they were both the ones who suffered the setback.
There is no way Tian Fen would give up the honor of being the deputy envoy of the Black Guard.
The deputy minister of the Ministry of Rites is just a false name, how can he compare with the actual position of deputy minister of the black guard? Even if you give him ten thousand taels of gold, you can't take off the skin of the black guard.
Tian Fen thought for a long time, then blushed and said bravely: "I have thought about it over and over, weighing the pros and cons, but I feel that the current situation is unstable, with Muping rebels inside and Mongolia outside.
The rebels are ready to move, the Western Regions
Tubo is watching with eager eyes, and the small southern countries are wavering and waiting to see the situation. In such a situation, if we disarmament rashly, wouldn't it damage the country's prestige and give people a sign of weakness? Therefore, I feel that it is inappropriate to discuss disarmament at this moment." [
Tian Fen had to take back his words even if his face was swollen. The weight of the black guard was far more important than face - without the black guard, he was nothing.
Bai Mochou looked at Tian Fen with a sneer on his face: "You are the one who says you are in favor of disarmament, and you are the one who says you are against disarmament. You fart randomly, do you have any dignity as a general?"
Tian Fen's face was swollen from being beaten by Shi Yue. Naturally, he didn't care about Bai Mochou's slander. He smiled at Yan Jing and said, "I was just hot-headed and spoke nonsense. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Those words were equivalent to raising the white flag and surrendering to Bai Mochou, Kang Shanzhen and Shi Yue.
Bai Mochou laughed loudly, walked up to Xiao Yan, clasped his hands behind his back, and said in a nonchalant manner: "Xiao Baldy, what else do you have to say? Do you still want to reduce the strength of the black guards? Let's talk first, old gangster.
I welcome you with both hands. I just hope you don’t slap yourself in the mouth like Tian Fen. You are the Prime Minister! A swollen face will not look good..."
I have to say, the old gangster Bai is so bad, he doesn’t have a sociable taste when he hurts others.,
Kang Shanzhen also looked at Xiao Yan coldly and said: "As for the disarmament, I applaud it with both hands. This is also the advice of an old man in seeking a country. Prime Minister Xiao must not back down. I believe you understand this sentence better than I do." He is really ironclad.
He wanted to kick Tian Fen out, even if he reduced his military strength.
Xiao Yan really felt difficult to make a choice.
On the one hand, he hopes to take this opportunity to suppress the black-clad guards. As long as the disarmament is successful, the Nine Gate City Guards will have a chance to be on an equal footing with the black-clad guards.
But the bad thing is that the one who was laid off by the Black Guards was not Shi Yue but Tian Fen. Isn't this equivalent to laying off his own allies?
Xiao Yan was weighing all kinds of things in his mind, thinking whether to retreat or bite the bullet and fight to the end. Suddenly, he felt a beam of cold light coming over him. When he looked up, he saw Tian Fen frowning and his face was gloomy.
He was looking at him, with resentment, pity, and grievance in his eyes, but mostly anger.
When Xiao Yan saw this, his heart skipped a beat. He knew that if Tian Fen was trapped this time, Tian Fen would definitely not let him go in his madness.
This hungry wolf is really difficult to control.
Xiao Yan looked at Cheng Ye and saw that Cheng Ye was shaking his head slightly, so he had to say to Yan Jing: "It was Deputy Tian who had the foresight to wake up the dreamer with his words. After all, the old minister is a civil servant. He is busy taking care of government affairs and presiding over the cabinet. He is very important to Yan Jing."
The grasp of the current situation is far less profound than that of Commander Kang and Deputy Envoy Tian. This is the negligence of the veteran."
Bai Mochou chuckled, "Xiao Baldy, your face is also swollen. Do you need me to 'knead' it for you?"
Kang Shanzhen felt relieved when he saw Xiao Yan repenting, but he couldn't help feeling disappointed - he really didn't want Tian Fen to stay among the black guards.[
Xiao Yan is also a shameless guy. Although this pastime is despicable, he can still barely bear it. He said: "Nowadays, the border is full of chaos and complicated and abnormal. It is better for the black-clothed guards not to act rashly and let others take command.
Deputy Envoy Tian and Deputy Envoy Shi are both outstanding generals. If they are separated from the Black Guards due to the reduction of military expenditures, wouldn't it give the emperor a reputation that he cannot know how to take advantage of others? How can I let the emperor bear a bad reputation? But...
…”
At this point, Xiao Yan changed the topic and said sternly: "Because the national treasury has been empty to the limit, it can still barely maintain it at the moment, but if we increase the holdings a little more, there will be a deficit. Therefore, the black-clad guards are the most
We can only maintain the status quo and must not expand the military. Otherwise, the consequences will be extremely serious and the pain will be unbearable."
The last sentence exposed Xiao Yan's calculation in his heart.
He had a good grasp of his mentality, thinking that as long as Shi Yue could not expand his army, even if he won a small victory, it would not be too late to slowly repair Shi Yue in the future.
Tian Fen listened to Xiao Yan put back his words, and his heart that had slipped into his throat returned to his chest again, but he still couldn't suppress the violent heart palpitations, thinking about the shocking moment today, which almost wiped out many years of business -
- "Tits", "Tits", this guy Shi Yue is really difficult to deal with.
Shi Yue smiled slightly, but had no intention of letting Xiao Yan go. He frowned and said to him: "Since Prime Minister Xiao will not disarm, what should we do about the empty treasury? Is Prime Minister Xiao just going to ignore it? You are the Prime Minister, right?"
As the leader of hundreds of officials, you can't just leave your pick."
Yan Jing saw what Shi Yue meant and hurriedly urged: "Yes, Prime Minister Xiao, is there any solution?"
Xiao Yan looked at Shi Yue, his eyes full of doubts. He had no idea what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd - this matter was already over, why was he still causing trouble?
But when Yan Jing asked him, he had to answer and hurriedly said: "I forgive my ignorance, I have a good prescription."
Shi Yue chuckled, unable to conceal his contempt.
Xiao Yan looked back at Shi Yue and asked, "Why is Deputy Shi sneering? Does Deputy Shi have a solution to the emptiness of the treasury?"
Shi Yue said loudly: "Yes, I have a wonderful recipe, and I want to ask the emperor to test it."
