Chen Chao looked at the Zuo Wei Yamen who was present. There was not much emotion in his eyes and he was very calm.
He had been away from the city of God for a long time, but now that he had returned and encountered such a thing, Chen Chao was not surprised.
"this……"
The yamen officer opened his mouth and wanted to refute, but at this moment he was speechless. Chen Chao was directly involved in Daliang Law. For them, it directly put the matter into the most difficult position to refute.
If they admit it, they do not recognize Daliang Law. After all, it is clearly recorded in Daliang Law that the highest official position in Zuowei Yamen is the commander, and everything in Zuowei Yamen can be decided by the commander with one word.
In addition, above the commander, only the guardian envoy and His Majesty the Emperor can make the left guard commander obey orders. Apart from this, no official or anyone has the right to dispatch the commander.
Nowadays, it happens that Emperor Liang and the envoy are not in the capital.
"Now that my commander is asking you to go out, what else do you have to say?"
Chen Chao slowly pressed the handle of the knife, his expression indifferent, but a chilling air was slowly coming out at this moment, as if the heavy snow in front of the Zuowei Yamen suddenly stopped at this moment.
Several government officials sensed this murderous intention and did not dare to say anything. However, soon a distant voice came from the courtyard, very coldly, "It turns out that Commander Chen is returning. Why don't you get out of the way?"
Commander Chen, please come in?"
A thin, middle-aged man appeared in the courtyard. He was wearing a black official robe, and his whole body had a special aura.
As he walked toward the door, the left-wing government officials who had blocked the door dispersed on both sides to make way for the middle-aged man. Many people saluted and called Commander Lin with their heads down.
Only Weng Quan shouted at the top of his lungs: "I've seen Deputy Commander Lin."
The man suddenly frowned. At this moment, this adjective was actually not a good name for the man in front of him.
Many people looked at Weng Quan with special meanings in their eyes. At this time, no one would think that Weng Quan in front of them spoke casually. His words must have been carefully considered.
However, it seems that many people have selectively forgotten something at this time, that is, Weng Quan in front of them has always been known as a naive person in the left guard.
Chen Chao remained silent, but there was a smile in the corner of his eyes. He naturally knew that Weng Quan could not have deliberately disgusted Lin Shan in front of him, but he had always been like this. Just like when Chen Chao was the deputy commander before, he also said
A Deputy Commander Chen.
Chen Chao waved Weng Quan out of the way and walked step by step towards Zuowei Yamen. He looked at Lin Shan and said with a smile: "Deputy Commander Lin has worked hard these days."
He stretched out his hand while speaking, and his meaning was clear.
The official seal of Zuo Wei is still in Lin Shan's hands.
Taking back the official seal of Zuowei means returning the power of Zuowei to the Chen Dynasty.
Come to think of it, if the guardian envoy was still in Shendu, or if Emperor Liang was still in Shendu, Lin Shan would not hesitate to hand over the official seal of Zuowei to Chen Chao.
But now, the commander is not in the divine capital, and neither is His Majesty the Emperor.
The official seal is in Lin Shan's hands.
It is written in the Daliang Code that the official whose words are effective in Zuo Wei is the commander, but at the same time, the Daliang Code makes it very clear that the commander must hold the official seal in order to exercise power.
Chen Chao was the commander, but the official seal was in Lin Shan's hands.
In fact, to a certain extent, it is difficult for the left-back officials here to choose.
Lin Shan has been working in Zuowei for many years and has a profound background. I don’t know how deep his connections are in Zuowei. Therefore, even if he is only a deputy commander at the moment, with the official seal in hand, there will be many Zuowei officials willing to obey his orders.
.
And Chen Chao just joined the Zuowei. Although he is now an official and a commander, and he has shined in the Ten Thousand Willows Meeting, in the final analysis, he has insufficient background. I am afraid that except for Weng Quan, there are not many Zuowei officials who are willing to believe in Chen Chao wholeheartedly.
And follow him unswervingly.
He chose to seize power as soon as he returned to the capital of gods. It was not a very clear choice, but Chen Chao had reasons for having to choose this way.
Lin Shan looked at Chen Chao and said with a smile: "Commander, please return to Zuowei Yamen after a hard day's work, drink hot tea, and rest for a few more days? My subordinates will take care of these matters in Zuowei."
Chen Chao's hand was still hanging in the air, but Lin Shan didn't give him what Chen Chao wanted, so he seemed very embarrassed for a moment.
The entire Zuowei Yamen was a little quiet.
Chen Chao slowly took back his hand and said with a smile: "Deputy Commander Lin has been even more tiring these days. Now that I have come back, I have to take over the responsibility. Otherwise, how can I live up to Commander Song's expectations? Lord Guard's
Instructions, His Majesty’s great trust?”
Debating is probably the least common thing among monks in the world, but for Chen Chao, it was commonplace.
The first of the three people he mentioned in this sentence made these government officials a little shaken. If there is one person in Zuowei that they will definitely worship as a god, it can only be Song Lian.
Zuo Wei has never done anything that made these government officials feel disheartened during his many years as the commander. His status in Zuo Wei is simply unmatched.
And after Song Lian, who is the guardian envoy and your majesty who they think is not a great person?
Lin Shan smiled and said: "The Guardian is not in the capital now, and His Majesty is also in retreat. If they know that Commander Chen has returned, they will definitely be very pleased."
Hearing this, Chen Chao also raised his eyebrows.
The fact that Emperor Liang is away from the capital is no longer a secret, but those who know about it will definitely not include the government officials in front of him.
So Lin Shan said this to them.
Chen Chao did not expect that the deputy commander who was a martial artist was so thoughtful, but he did not panic. After a while, he asked bluntly: "Deputy commander Lin, have you ever heard of Daliang law?"
This sentence had been said outside the Yamen before, so Lin Shan must know what it meant.
In the past, when you and I were going back and forth, the two of them were quite restrained, but now, when the two of them speak, there is really no restraint at all.
This is straight forward.
Lin Shan looked at Chen Chao with no emotion in his eyes. In his opinion, it was natural for Chen Chao to be unable to calm down. After all, no matter how mature the young man in front of him was, he was still just a young man.
Lin Shan said with emotion: "Commander Chen can really feel his thoughts on serving the country, but..."
Chen Chao raised his eyebrows.
Lin Shan smiled and said: "It's just that Zuowei's official seal cannot be given to Commander Chen at this moment."
