Beidou Holy Academy can be said to be the elite academy of Eternal Heaven, cultivating the elites in the social system of Eternal Heaven.
Whether these talents are recruited by major aristocratic families or absorbed into the army after graduation, the Eternal Heavenly Palace will not have too many concerns.
However, in such a way, more than 200,000 people were recruited into an army at once. Except for the Imperial Guards, which were directly under the control of the Eternal Lord, other armies had never set such a precedent.
The main reason is that other people don't dare to come to Fan Shuyuan's place to recruit people like this, because they will probably be slapped to death by Fan Shuyuan.
The next day, there was a court meeting in the Eternal Heavenly Palace
An old man called on the ministers to enter the Tiangong Emperor's Palace.
The old man was wearing a red official uniform with a crane embroidered on it, and a red chalcedony inlaid in his hair crown.
Zhang Ju'an, the chief minister of the Eternal Dynasty, was a first-rank official.
The ministers came to the palace and bowed respectfully: "Greetings to Your Majesty. Your Majesty may live as long as the heavens and may you be blessed with great blessings!"
The man sitting above, covered in the purple energy of destiny, is the Eternal Lord, Gu Tianheng.
But there is a high probability that this is just a clone he uses to handle government affairs.
The Eternal Lord put down the jade slip in his hand and looked at everyone: "Today's meeting will be held. If you have something to do, I will leave the court if there is nothing!"
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
An old man came out and said that the person speaking was none other than Zhang Shoufu.
Zhang Shoufu maintained his salute posture and said: "Your Majesty, please remove Fan Zhuguo from the position of dean of Beidou Holy Academy, and push this animal out and behead it!"
Fan Shuyuan was also among the ministers, and he was at the head of one of them. He glanced sideways at Zhang Shoufu and sneered, but said nothing.
The Eternal Lord's expression was calm, without any disturbance, and he said indifferently: "What did the First Assistant say?"
Zhang Shoufu pointed at Fan Shuyuan and said: "Fan Zhuguo is using power for personal gain and developing his own party members. Yesterday he allowed two hundred thousand Holy Academy disciples to join Li Wangchen's army. This is not using power for personal gain and developing his own party members for rebellion!"
Fan Shuyuan directly scolded: "Zhang Ju'an, old Niubi, what are you talking about? Which of your eyes saw me developing party members and using power for personal gain?"
"Yesterday, two hundred thousand disciples of the Holy Academy joined the army and joined Li Wangchen's army. They were all of their own free will, and I, Fan Shuyuan, did not force them. What do you mean by using power for personal gain?"
"Your Majesty, this bullshit falsely accused a loyal minister and a general who was fighting bloody battles on the front line. He has evil intentions. I suspect that he is a spy who has been infiltrated by the enemy for many years. I beg your Majesty to kill this old traitor!"
Fan Shuyuan also went out to salute.
Next to him, Ouyang Shengwu almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
The other ministers were not surprised when they saw this scene. The top bosses and old guys in this temple were usually in a state of random quarrels.
In the temple, you step on me and I step on you. Today you beg your majesty to behead you, and tomorrow I beg your majesty to behead him. Everyone is used to it.
Of course, this is actually the main effect of Eternal, although sometimes they are deliberately acting to quarrel.
As an emperor, the last thing you want is to see the ministers below you united as one!
Zhang Shoufu's Hubu Shangshu came out and said: "Your Majesty, it is indeed inappropriate for more than 200,000 Holy Court disciples to join an army together. Except for the Imperial Guard, no army has ever had a precedent of so many Holy Court disciples!
"
Zhang Shoufu's other people began to agree.
"Yes, we have never recruited so many disciples from the Holy Academy before. At most, we only recruited some officers."
"If this is the case, wouldn't Beidou Holy Academy become a cradle for cultivating minions for a certain party?"
Zhang Shoufu's men began to attack, and Fan Shuyuan's men naturally refused to be outdone.
Ouyang Shengwu, the Minister of the Ministry of War and a disciple of Fan Shuyuan, came out and said: "Your Majesty, except for the imperial guards, there is no precedent for any army to directly come to the Holy Academy to recruit so many disciples, but what Li Wangchen did is not considered a violation of the rules."
The Eternal Lord sat upright and asked calmly: "Why?"
"Because those people all volunteered to join the army, your Majesty and ministers, please take a look at the scene at that time."
As he spoke, he took out a jade plate, which reflected the scene at that time.
I saw countless students, and the disciples volunteered to sign up at the recruitment registration office, shouting that they would protect their homeland and country and expel the ghosts from the underworld.
When the ministers present saw this situation, they all talked about it. Ouyang Shengwu said: "Everyone, you see, Li Wangchen inspired everyone to take the initiative to serve the court and serve the ancient patriotism, and made everyone follow him voluntarily."
"These people all joined Li Wangchen's army voluntarily, rather than being forced to do so. This is a different concept. We shouldn't stop our people from joining the army to serve the country, right?"
"If we do this, it will only dampen the patriotism of people with lofty ideals in the world!"
The Minister of Revenue sneered: "Master Ouyang, you are just changing your concept."
Ouyang Shengwu raised his brows: "Secretly changing the concept? What concept did I secretly change? This is a fact. Could it be that you haven't recruited any graduates of the Holy Academy disciples who voluntarily joined you in these years?"
"Sir, the number of disciples of the Holy Academy in your household department is probably less than 200,000, so are you trying to win over the disciples of the Holy Academy to develop your party members?"
"You, you are changing the concept!"
"Oh, I also said that you formed a clique for personal gain!"
"You form a clique for your own benefit!"
"You have framed Zhongliang and deserve to be killed!"
People from the two forces started fighting, while the others quietly enjoyed themselves.
"quiet!"
Next to the Eternal Lord, a eunuch holding a long whip screamed loudly, and struck the bottom with the whip, hitting the ground with a snap, and the whole place fell silent.
Both sides stopped talking. They returned to their original positions from the previous scolding and spitting fight, and stopped talking.
The Eternal Lord said: "One side of you says that you are forming a clique for personal gain, and the other side says that you are framed by Zhongliang. If this is the case, then let Li Wangchen, the person involved, come to see you and attend the court meeting!"
Not everyone can attend the court meeting. Generally, it is the seventh-grade or above officials who have lived here for a long time to deal with state affairs. Xiang Chen and others are frontline commanders. They do not need to attend the court meeting unless they are specially summoned.
"The fourth-grade military attaché declared, one-star general Li Wangchen is here to see you!"
The eunuch immediately called loudly.
"The fourth-grade military attaché declared, one-star general Li Wangchen is here to see you!"
This sound was passed on to people outside.
Within ten breaths, a secret agent who was specifically watching Xiang Chen transformed into a walking messenger and came to Xiang Chen's mansion to report.
Xiang Chen was stunned for a moment after receiving the notification, but he did not dare to delay and immediately put on his armor and rushed to the Tiangong.
There is no need for him to rush, there is already a magic weapon with amazing speed coming to pick him up.
A one-star general, placed in the court, is only a fourth-rank official. He is considered a high-ranking official, at the mayor level, but he is not at the top of Tiandu's power level or at the bottom of the upper class.
If he were a five-star general, that would be extraordinary. He was a second-rank military officer, second only to a military officer of the second rank such as the Minister of War.
From summoning Xiang Chen to sending Xiang Chen outside the Tiangong Hall, it only took two minutes, which shows the efficiency of the work.
