Chapter 60: Old traitor versus giant slippery man (5,000 words long chapter)
[]
After leaving the court.
The dark clouds that had been shrouding the sky miraculously dispersed.
The fiery red sun, with its warmth, spreads heat all over the earth, warming the world.
Outside the palace.
Li Guogong felt the warmth coming through his clothes, and his eyes lit up: "Is this year's strange late spring cold over?"
What is late spring cold?
An unusual weather condition.
The weather in spring should have turned from cold to warm, but the cold wave in winter still persists at this time. As a result, the time is spring and the temperature is still winter.
Li Jian smiled!
As the weather gets warmer, the poor people at the bottom of Daxia will have a way to survive!
Is this a good sign for him to enter the temple again?
Unknowingly, Li Jian's mind turned to government affairs.
Over the years, in the Great Xia court, the emperor had always asked the prince to supervise the country.
The emperor's purpose was very simple, which was to familiarize the prince with the affairs of the court, demonstrate his abilities, gain recognition from important officials in the court, and cultivate a tacit understanding between the future monarch and his ministers.
However, it backfired!
Over the years, the prince not only had no ability to show off, but also perfectly displayed his shortcomings of being fierce and timid, chilling the hearts of many important ministers and letting down Emperor Xia's hard work.
Therefore, although Xia Tian's seven brothers have already arrived in the fiefdom, they all began to be dishonest and wanted to return to the imperial capital one day and sit on the throne of the prince.
If not, you can usurp the throne!
Anyway, this is how their emperor sat on the throne.
Therefore, there are rumors in the imperial capital that the seven princes are training private soldiers in the fiefdom and intending to rebel. It is definitely not groundless.
If the Daxia Empire is compared to a calm sea, then under the calm water, there are already dark waves.
All the kings want to be emperor.
Just when Li Jian was considering his next move.
The old eunuch appeared in front of the main hall and said: "Dong Li Guo, Prime Minister Cao, please stay!"
Li Guogong and Cao Wei turned around at the same time, their faces full of respect: "Eunuch Wei, does your Majesty have an oral message?"
"It's not an oracle!"
The old eunuch, Eunuch Wei, was all smiles: "Your Majesty announces that the two adults will meet in the imperial study!"
"According to the order!"
Li Guogong and Cao Wei both secretly guessed: "Why did the emperor summon them at this time?"
Is it related to the murder of Qingzhou Governor Ye Fan?
Or is it related to Xia Tian, the king of Huangzhou?
Shortly after.
In the royal study.
Eunuch Wei led Cao Wei and Duke Li into the door. After coming forward to greet them, he stood respectfully in front of the desk and listened to the holy words with Sima Jian, who arrived first.
at this time.
Emperor Xia's face was as dark as water, with no expression visible: "Prime Minister Cao, I handed you Xiaojiu's royal words and asked you to write a letter to express your feelings. Why is there no memorial from you on my desk so far?
Old God Cao Wei was there, and he took out a memorial from his sleeve and handed it to Eunuch Wei: "Your Majesty, I have written my thoughts on the memorial. Please read it."
Emperor Xia was a little strange: "Since Prime Minister Cao has already written it, why didn't he submit it to the court?"
beside.
A strange color flashed in Sima Jian's eyes!
Be alert!
This old guy is a little weird today and may be playing tricks!
the other side.
Li Guogong's eyes lit up and he immediately became energetic!
Cao Wei, the old fox, is going to cause trouble!
Because when he wants to cause trouble, that's what Cao Wei looks like now.
A sinister-looking person.
but.
What Li Jian fears most in his life is having nothing to do!
In the past few years, he left the Li family army far away at the frontier and returned to the imperial capital to recuperate from his injuries. His life was uneventful and he was so idle that his balls ached!
Fortunately, he has now found a new goal!
It is to send the king of Huangzhou to the throne of the king of God!
Li Jian put aside his worries and stared at Cao Wei!
These few years.
He silently observed the entire Daxia court, especially the important officials who could enter the Daxia Palace to discuss matters.
Li Jian discovered that important officials in the DPRK had been won over by various forces.
Among them, Cao Wei helped the prince win over the most people.
Other princes also attracted supporters in the court.
At that time, Xia Tian was still pretending to be stupid in the palace library.
Then.
He observed the prince and the princes, hoping to find a wise king who could lead the Great Xia Dynasty forward in the future.
Very disappointed!
The prince and the other kings are all people with great ambitions but little talent. In terms of ambition, one is more ambitious than the other, and in terms of talent, one is worse than the other.
Sure enough, he was born to the same father,
However, the father is a tiger and the son is a dog!
disappoint him.
Then.
He declined the attempts of all parties to win over him.
Although Li Jian has been idle at home these past few years, he is a famous general in the empire, an undefeated god of war, and has high prestige in the army.
If you can get him, you can gain the trust of the Daxia Empire's military.
Now, many generals in the Daxia army were his followers and disciples in the past.
If Xia Tian knew that there was such an old guy in the court to help him, he would definitely be so excited that he would want to have a bridal chamber with Sima Lan right away!
This time.
Xia Tian left the imperial capital, rescued Li Furong, killed the evil bandits, set up a camp in Beijing, and declared war on the evil bandits all over the world.
Only then did Li Jian catch his eye.
This king of Huangzhou is at least better than his eight brothers!
