Chapter 1197: The Way of the Most Beautiful Man in the World (28)
Xie Zhao always felt that she was very annoying. She was always at risk of being assassinated and had to be followed wherever she went.
He is obviously a talented general, but he insists on turning himself into a follower.
Huan Lin also saw Xie Zhao. He admired Xie Zhao very much and praised Xie Zhao several times.
Gu Mo was humbled and said, "Da Sima Miao Zan, in fact, this kid is far from as powerful as people say. He can barely fight one against a hundred."
Huan Lin, "..."
She was so proud that Xie Zhao was her son.
Huan Lin twitched the corner of her mouth and said: "This is a general. Only the battlefield is his world. How about giving him to me, Taifu Gu, and I give him the position of right general?"
With Xie Zhao's background, taking the path of military merit is the fastest way to strive for glory, wealth, and the title of general.
Gu Mo glanced at Huan Lin silently.
Are you poaching me so blatantly to divide my internal power?
"It is his honor to be favored by Da Sima."
Then he said to Xie Zhao, "Why don't you come over quickly and thank Da Sima."
Xie Zhao pursed his lips and raised his hand perfunctorily.
When he went back, he told Gu Mo that his nose was not a nose and his eyes were not eyes.
After arriving at the gate of the mansion, Gu Mo didn't come to help Gu Mo get off the carriage. He entered the mansion alone and slammed the door loudly.
But this could not change the fact that he became Huan Lin's right general. He reported to Huan Lin the next day.
The generals on the left and right of Sima Huan were equivalent to his right and left hands.
He gave Xie Zhao such a high position. It seemed that he valued Xie Zhao, but in fact it was equivalent to putting Xie Zhao on the fire.
After all, everyone in the army has been on the battlefield and has military merit. None of them can be the right general. Why can Xie Zhao, a young junior who landed in the air?
In this way, Xie Zhao was able to gain a lot of strength in Huan Lin's army.
Huan Lin gave him this position, but she had no intention of helping him out and ignored him completely.
Of course, this is all for later.
After Gu Mo returned to her house that day, her staff immediately came to her study.
"I heard that the Lord of the Fortress wrote a letter to the court today to remove the official Qing Tan. The Lord of the Fortress is carrying out reforms in the court. Why don't you discuss such a big matter with us?"
Reform has always been an extreme sport seeking death. For those who are determined to reform, few will end well whether they succeed or not. They are completely thankless for their efforts.
Because once the current balance is broken, there will always be people whose interests will be harmed, and these people whose interests will be harmed, either openly or covertly, will definitely kill you.
Even Shang Yang, who was as iron-fisted as he was, ended up with a tragic car crash.
Gu Mo had just entered the court and his foundation was not stable, but to carry out reforms in the court was tantamount to seeking death.
Gu Mo said in a relaxed tone, "Who said I want to reform?"
An aide named Song Daobo immediately asked, "Then why did you write a letter to remove the official Qingtan?"
"I am now a minister of the Jing Dynasty, and I am not happy to see their corpses lying bare. Shouldn't I write a letter to impeach them?"
Song Daobo opened his mouth and realized instantly that he seemed to be overthinking it.
However, Gu Mo came up with an idea on the spur of the moment, and finally succeeded strangely??
Not only him, but probably everyone in the court thought that Gu Mo was going to carry out reforms, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
After all, there is now a special meeting event between the nobles of Jiankang City called Ji Tan.
The content of their discussion was Gu Mo's words and deeds, and their task was to make blind guesses about Gu Mo's various behaviors and words.
For example, a while ago, Gu Mo didn't look at his feet when he was walking, and fell down at the gate of Taifu's mansion.
As a result, those people immediately held a meeting to discuss, and finally came to the conclusion: Gu Ziji is a person with the best appearance and demeanor in the world. How could he accidentally fall? He must be demonstrating to us, implying that our family is in his hands.
fall……"
When Song Daobo heard these remarks, he was speechless. He felt that these aristocratic families were really well-fed and free.
But now that Gu Mo has really taken up the matter of dismissing the Qing Tan officials, in the eyes of the family, Gu Mo may be going to war with them.
Song Daobo immediately raised his concerns.
Gu Mo said: "They like to think too much, and sometimes thinking too much is not necessarily a bad thing for their opponents, so don't worry about them."
Song Daobo thought the same thing. Even if these aristocratic families wanted to kill Gu Mo, they wouldn't dare. So the more they thought about it, the more they would trouble themselves.
"Then how could Da Sima agree with you?"
Gu Mo didn't answer and asked the staff instead.
"What do you think of Huan Da Sima?"
Everyone thought about it and said, "There are gaps in my chest, and I also have ambitions."
There is no doubt about Huan Lin's military and political abilities, but it would be difficult for anyone like him to succumb to others.
Especially when the royal family is so weak, how could he be willing to let a hero like him defend Jing Chao?
He has already made full preparations to replace Jing Chao. The little emperor is just cannon fodder who can step down at any time.
However, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. It would be intriguing if Huan Lin really wanted to replace Jing Chao and recruit Gu Mo into the court.
First, I am afraid that he wants to take the power of Gu Mo and Gu Jiabao for his own use. If it cannot be used for his own use, he will definitely take the opportunity to remove them.
When the staff thought of this, they suddenly realized why Gu Mo had succeeded in impeaching the official.
Huan Lin also couldn't stand these officials who ruined the country with their idle talk. Secondly, he seemed to be supporting Gu Mo, but in fact he was using the help of the aristocratic family to give Gu Mo a blow.
Although Gu Mo had offended the aristocratic family quite a lot in the past, he did not affect the collective interests of the entire aristocratic family.
Now that he has caused so many children of aristocratic families to lose their official positions, and is even threatening to cause the aristocratic family to lose its right to elect officials, can the aristocratic family let her go?
And it would be terrible for aristocratic family to really go crazy.
Once Gu Mo is surrounded by the influence of aristocratic families, there are only two ways in the end:
First, seek refuge with Huan Lin.
Second, he held on for dear life, and then he was outnumbered and besieged by aristocratic families and died.
Third, just leave the court, look back at the family fort, and lead the Gu family fort to rebel.
"Fortmaster, this move of yours is really dangerous!"
Gu Mo did not deny it, "Da Sima Huan wanted to use me to offend the noble family and make me an enemy of the noble family so that he could continue to monopolize power. Now the noble family sees me as a thorn in their side. It is an obstacle for me to gain a foothold in the court, but it is also mine."
Chance."
Yes, Huan Lin's use is her opportunity. If she seizes it well, she can take charge of the government.
The staff also know this, but...
"The Lord of the Fortress fired so many officials in one day, I'm afraid there will be no one available in the court."
Gu Mo said: "Talents are plentiful in the world. If you can't find them among the aristocratic families or among the scholars, then look for them among the people..."
Not to mention, the ordinary people who can live peacefully into their twenties and thirties in this troubled world are not ordinary people.
