Cheng Yuanzhen stepped forward with small steps and placed the imperial edict in the hands of Gao Xianzhi, who was holding it up with both hands.
I thought that this kind of suffering should be over. Fumeng Lingcha stood up and turned around to leave. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yuanzhen raised his chin and said: "General Fumeng, stay here for now. The saint still has a message to pass on to our family."
you."
Fumeng Lingcha wanted to slap this little eunuch in the face. I haven't resigned yet, but I have changed my title. What's even more hateful is that since the oral instructions are given, why can't we go alone in the room and deliver the oral instructions face to face?
If you think about it with your toes, you can tell that this command is not a good word. Why do you have to whip my corpse in front of everyone?
Fortunately, Fumeng Lingcha had been an official for so many years and had accumulated some face, so he had no choice but to kneel on the ground with his hands crossed and say, "I accept the order."
Cheng Yuanzhen folded his hands in front of his lower abdomen and raised his chin high to imitate the sage's contemptuous expression: "I have noticed that you have been wielding a halberd in the Western Regions for many years. You have made great achievements in the past. However, after taking charge of the two towns in Qixi, Hexi, you are timid.
, fearful of war, did not advance, and achieved nothing in three years. Today, Gao Xianzhi defeated Xiaobo Lujian with a thunderous blow, but you are envious of talents, criticize and insult, and are so narrow-minded, how can you be responsible for the defense of the two towns.
"I will temporarily step down from my duties as the governor of Hexi and Anxi towns, and return to the court in November to listen to you."
Fu Meng Lingzha lowered his head and crossed his hands: "I obey your order."
He stood up from the ground with trembling support, his legs seemed to have no strength in the joints, his feet moved slowly, as if his biological age had increased by ten years in an instant, and he walked away with a slight load on his back.
At this moment, Li Siye suddenly felt that in the torrent of history and the hustle and bustle of officialdom, everyone was pitiful and pathetic.
After Cheng Yuanzhen announced his decree, Gao Xianzhi hurriedly went up to receive him, invited him to his study, and stuffed him with some small money. Naturally, the little eunuch was very happy, nodded in approval and said: "The high school prime minister is a man of temperament.
This is especially valuable. When we return to Chang'an, I will definitely say many kind words for you in front of the saint."
Cheng Yuanzhen is just talking nonsense. With his current status, he can only contact Gao Lishi. He may be able to reach the sky with his hands and eyes in the future, but he is not able to do so at the moment.
Gao Xianzhi did not try to expose him, but kept a low profile and held him beside him. It was not over until he held the holy envoy submissively and sent him away.
This is how the transition from one era to another in Qixi began. In fact, only a small number of people failed to realize this sudden change, and they needed to adapt slowly.
When Gao Xianzhi was appointed as Jiedushi, there should be three fires for the new official to take office. Everyone was very afraid of these three fires, because this person had been among them, and suddenly one day surpassed them and became the leader of Anxi. It was somewhat uncomfortable psychologically.
Comfortable.
There seems to be a saying that if you are a little more than others, others will be jealous of you; if you are a lot more than others, others will admire you. In the past when Gao Xianzhi was at his lowest period, Cheng Qianli, Bi Sixhen and others were far above him in official positions.
Gao Xianzhi's rapid advancement made it difficult not to arouse jealousy. When he served as the deputy governor and the military commander of the four towns, these people often went to Hexi to report to Fumeng Lingcha, which made Gao Xianzhi cautious in everything and made no decisions no matter what.
If you dare to act independently, you must report to Fumeng Lingcha for instructions. It was only because Xiaobolu did not report victory through him when he returned from the expedition that he caused such a big disturbance.
Not to mention Gao Xianzhi himself, even if Li Siye rose to his current position, he would inevitably be slandered by his husband, Meng Lingcha, behind his back.
Now that Gao Xianzhi is finally superior to many generals in Anxi, these people are frightened and tremble all day long, worried that their leaders will put them in trouble.
The only thing he didn't have to worry about was Li Siye. He had a good relationship with Gao Xianzhi. Even in the turmoil between Fumeng Lingcha and Gao Xianzhi, he still remained neutral, making Gao Xianzhi's opinion of him almost based on his appearance and his talent.
Be loyal to character.
Therefore, as soon as Gao Xianzhi became the Jiedushi of the Fourth Town, he regarded him and Bian Lingcheng as his accomplices, and summoned them into the study alone. Li Siye was very disgusted with Bian Lingcheng in private, and secretly slandered him.
The eunuch is considered an accomplice, but do you know whose hands you will die in the end?
He had this kind of detached gaze, and he felt like laughing when he saw these two confiding in front of him.
"Border Supervisor, we will support each other in the days to come, and I will make you my confidant."
Bian Lingcheng cupped his hands and said in a sharp voice: "In the past, our family was in the forbidden palace. We only had a godfather and no friends. I am very grateful to be able to win the love of the high school prime minister."
Li Siye thought to himself, do you two still want to form a CP, fall in love and kill each other?
Gao Xianzhi turned to Li Siye and said: "After the situation in Anxi stabilizes, I will go to Chang'an with you to pay tribute. At that time, I will recommend you in front of the saint as the military envoy of the four towns."
Li Siye secretly lamented that it had been ten years since he came to Anxi from Chang'an in the 25th year of the lunar calendar, and he finally sat in the second-in-command position. Although he was still not as good as Gao Xianzhi, Gao Xianzhi had been working in this place for fifteen years. These
The generals who work their way up from the grassroots level are not very good at flattering others, so it is very difficult for them to rise through the ranks like a rocket.
He stepped forward and crossed his hands and said: "Thank you Zhongcheng for your love. Li Siye will certainly live up to Zhongcheng's expectations."
At this time, the military official of the Duhu Mansion came in and whispered to Gao Xianzhi: "Zhongcheng, they are here."
Gao Xianzhi nodded lightly and said to Bian Lingcheng and Li Siye: "Let's go to the main hall to discuss matters."
Li Siye saw Gao Xianzhi take a deep breath and felt that something had happened today, but he didn't have such a strong curiosity. Besides, even if something happened at the door, he should be able to stay out of it.
They pushed open the partition door and followed Gao Xianzhi towards the front of the hall. When they came out from behind the pillars, they saw the Anxi generals standing below. Everyone looked at the stage with an uneasy feeling.
Gao Xianzhi's heart should be very complicated at the moment. There are a bunch of people who have a problem with him standing below. Although this group of people cannot pose any threat to him, in such a centrifugal state, I'm afraid what he wants to accomplish in the future
It's not easy either.
Li Siye stood aside and thought to himself that Gao Xianzhi must heal this rift as soon as possible, and he didn't know what method he would use.
Gao Xianzhi knelt down in front of the screen table, Li Siye and Bian Lingcheng sat on both sides of the lower head respectively, and the other generals still stood there in a daze.
The high school prime minister's face darkened for no reason, and he said to everyone in a cold voice: "Everyone, please sit down."
"Here."
These people sat on the left and right sides in the usual order. Gao Xianzhi coughed heavily and said: "Before today's discussion, I want to talk to you about other things. I know all the things you people have done behind my back.
, I also know your faces when these things happened before!"
As soon as Gao Xianzhi said this, everyone was astonished. Even Li Siye was surprised. Gao Xianzhi is not a straight-forward person. He will go through five or six circles in his stomach no matter what. What is this sudden outburst against everyone?
mean?
He raised his finger and pointed at Cheng Qianli and cursed loudly: "You bastard, you look like a big, thick, unshaven man! But on the inside, you are as bitter and mean as a woman, so you went to complain secretly! You think I don't know!"
Cheng Qianli was trembling and lowered his head without speaking.
