Everyone looked at Xia Nantian nervously, wondering what official position Xia Nantian would give Zhao Yun.
However, most people think that the official position should not be too high.
After all, although Zhao Yun is powerful, he has just entered the officialdom and has not made any achievements. How could he be given such a high position?
"Hmph, let's see what kind of official position you can be granted!" Yuan Houtian heard that Zhao Yun was granted an official position, and a disdainful sneer appeared on his face.
Yuan Houtian is confident that the official position Zhao Yun was granted will not be too high.
You know, your own strength is pretty good, and you have climbed to where you are today step by step.
He couldn't help but hope that when Zhao Yun was sealed and his official position was lower than his own, and he was assigned to work under him, he would be able to deal with Zhao Yun well.
After all, as the saying goes, the first level of officialdom kills people.
Even if Zhao Yun is powerful, as long as his official position is lower than his own, there are hundreds of ways to deal with Zhao Yun.
Apparently, many people from the Second Prince looked at Yuan Houtian as if they were laughing.
After all, everyone knows that at this moment, Yuan Houtian is at the peak of the sky, and he is the most powerful among the many army commanders in charge of Houtian Army!
The rest of the army commanders also have to give Yuan Houtian some face.
Therefore, regardless of whether Zhao Yun joins that legion, he will definitely not get any good results.
"This Zhao Yun is not bad. If he joins the army, he will definitely be a fierce general!" Fang Tu looked at Zhao Yun with admiration in his eyes.
As an old marshal of Daxia, it was not easy for Fang Tu to say this, but think about it.
"I just don't know what position the emperor will give Zhao Yun. If it's too low, it's better not to do it!" Wang Xingyu said, and after speaking, he glanced at Yuan Houtian intentionally or unintentionally.
Apparently he was also worried that Yuan Houtian would cause trouble for Zhao Yun if he joined the army.
The Fierce Tiger King saw Wang Xingyu's worry and smiled directly: "My lord, there is no need to worry. When the time comes, I can let this Zhao Yun join my Fierce Tiger Legion. Let's not mention Zhao Yun's strength. Even with me here, no one dares to cause trouble for him.
.”
"So good!"
Wang Xingyu and Fang Tu also nodded with satisfaction!
"The position of commander of the Nanzhou Army has been vacant for a long time. Zhao Yun, why don't you take the post?" Xia Nantian thought for a moment and said.
"What! Nanzhou Legion, the position of Legion Commander!"
"Oh my God, I started out as a legion commander. Did I hear that right?"
"Your Majesty, you are attaching too much importance to Zhao Yun!"
"Doesn't this mean that Zhao Yun's position is instantly equal to that of General Yuan Houtian!"
"It seems... it seems... yes!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard Xia Nantian's words.
Obviously they all thought that Xia Nantian would not give Zhao Yun an official too high, but obviously it would not be too low either.
But they never expected that Xia Nantian would give Zhao Yun such a high position.
This made the faces of Yuan Houtian and others suddenly look ugly, especially Yuan Houtian, whose face turned the color of pig liver.
What a joke, I fought bloody battles for ten or twenty years before reaching my current position as army commander!
As soon as Zhao Yun came up, he became the commander of the army. How could he bear this!
The second prince's face is also very ugly, if Zhao Yun is really allowed to become the commander of the army.
Doesn't that mean that Xia Haoxuan also has a legion behind him, which is definitely a huge threat to him.
To be honest, even Xia Haoxuan himself was full of surprise. Obviously, he did not expect that Xia Nantian would be so generous and directly gave Zhao Yun the position of army commander.
You must know that this was definitely a historical precedent in the Daxia Dynasty.
But no one has ever been able to become a legion commander as soon as he joins the army.
Originally, Xia Haoxuan thought that it would be very good for Zhao Yun to obtain the position of captain of ten thousand men.
"It seems that my father also valued Zhao Yun, so he gave him such a high position in order to win over Zhao Yun." Xia Haoxuan immediately understood what was going on.
In fact, Xia Haoxuan's guess was not accurate. Of course, on the one hand, Xia Nantian took a fancy to Zhao Yun's strength, but on the other hand, Xia Nantian was actually still feeling resentful about driving him out of the palace and the royal family. Therefore, giving Zhao Yun such a high position can be regarded as compensation for him. After all, Zhao Yun is Xia Haoxuan's person.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, I dare not have any objections!" Zhao Yun quickly knelt down at Xia Haoxuan's signal and said respectfully.
"Your Majesty, you can't do that. How virtuous and capable is he to be able to hold the position of army commander?"
"Your Majesty, please think twice and please take back your order!"
"Isn't it very inappropriate to directly give the position of legion commander?"
When everyone under the second prince heard Xia Nantian's words, they all panicked and hurriedly spoke out to persuade him.
What a joke, many of them took refuge in the second prince, most of them did it for the sake of Yuan Houtian!
Because in their opinion, with the support of Yuan Houtian, the second prince has a great chance of ascending to the throne of emperor!
The biggest weakness of Xia Haoxuan is that he does not have the support of the army.
If Zhao Yun becomes the commander of the army, it will definitely be a huge threat to them, because then Xia Haoxuan can fight against the second prince in a separate court!
"Your Majesty, there is something wrong with this!" Yuan Houtian couldn't hold on anymore and said directly.
Zhao Yun's own strength is stronger than him, which already makes him feel threatened enough.
If Zhao Yun's official position was equal to his own, he would not be alive anymore, so he had to let Xia Nantian take back his life!
"Father, if you give Zhao Yun the position of commander of the army, you think too highly of him. Why don't you give him the position of captain of ten thousand men first?" The second prince also said hurriedly.
"My decision has been made!" Xia Nantian naturally expected that the Second Prince, Yuan Houtian and others would refuse, so he was well prepared and said firmly.
In fact, if we really want to say that he gave Zhao Yun this position, firstly, he wanted to compensate Xia Haoxuan, and secondly, he valued Zhao Yun.
But there is no need to give Zhao Yun a legion commander in such a hurry.
The reason why he gave Zhao Yun the position of army commander so quickly was because he was already wary and dissatisfied with Yuan Houtian in his heart.
So he wanted to pit Zhao Yun against Yuan Houtian's division to suppress Yuan Houtian.
Obviously, Yuan Houtian is becoming more and more arrogant now, otherwise it would be impossible for him to let him participate in the competition, and he would dare to make a request to him!
It's not that he doesn't want to directly take down Yuan Houtian, but Yuan Houtian has too many party members in Houtian's army and his position is deeply rooted. If he is taken down without a solid reason, it will inevitably cause chaos.
When Yuan Houtian heard Xia Nantian's resolute tone, he felt even more unhappy.
Yuan Houtian's eyes narrowed, and then he made a decision and looked at the five princes: "Five princes, please let your majesty take back your order. Zhao Yun directly becomes the commander of the army, which is against the rules. Hou Tian does not accept it!
"
When everyone heard Yuan Houtian's words, they all gasped with shock on their faces!
