Eight hundred and seventieth chapters great power minister
It can be said that these are almost the standard equipment of powerful ministers, but almost all powerful ministers who have great power for a while will enjoy such privileges.
However, just when Zhao Gou had just sealed Chu Yi and given Chu Yi a lot of privileges, a figure stood up, but it was Lu Shinang, the former Manichean sect who had followed Fang La and submitted to Chu Yi.
Lu Shinang is not an ordinary person. He can be said to be both civil and military. At least he is much stronger than 90% of the officials in the Great Song Dynasty.
Unlike others, Lu Shinang and others were first labeled as rebels, and then were labeled as Chu Yi after surrendering to Chu Yi. It can be said that they are the backbone of Chu Yi's line in the eyes of the world.
Even if some of them wanted to join the emperor or other important ministers, no one would dare to accept them.
At this moment, Lu Shinang walked out from the ranks of the courtiers. Facing the surprised looks of many ministers, he stood forward without fear, and then saluted the emperor Zhao Gou who was sitting there, "Your Majesty,
I have something to say!"
Zhao Gou glanced at Chu Yi subconsciously, and saw Chu Yi sitting there with a calm face. He was not sure what Lu Shinang's sudden action meant. Was it Chu Yi's instigation, or was he not sure?
Instigating Lu Shinang's actions.
No matter what he thought in his heart, Zhao Gou seemed very patient when facing the people of Chu Yi's group. He nodded slightly and said, "If the Lu Qing family has anything to say, just say it."
Lu Shinang cupped his hands, first saluted Chu Yi, and then said: "Your Majesty, the general manager has made great contributions to the country. Since your majesty has made the general manager the king of Song Dynasty, he should add nine tins, fake yellow Yue, and the same ceremony as the three divisions to open the mansion.
The affairs under Tong Zhongshu's sect are peaceful..."
After listening to Lu Shinang's words, everyone's eyes suddenly opened wide and they looked at Lu Shinang in disbelief. At the same time, some people reacted and looked at Zhao Gou.
You must know that the previous rewards Zhao Gou gave to Chu Yi, except for the title of the general manager of the world's soldiers and horses, other rewards, including being crowned king, paying homage to others, going to court with swords and shoes, etc., are just a false name.
But Lu Shinang’s words are amazing. Whether it’s Kaifu Yi Tongsansi or Tongzhongshu’s subordinate Pingzhangshi, once Zhao Gou agrees, it means that Chu Yi has the opportunity to open the government.
Appointing staff and forming his own team is almost equivalent to allowing Chu Yi to form a small court in addition to the Great Song Dynasty.
After having these powers, if Chu Yi is willing one day, even if he attempts to usurp the throne, it will be just a matter of course. He can just replace the Song Dynasty court with his own small court without any sense of violation.
If someone stares at Zhao Gou carefully, they will find that at that moment, Zhao Gou's face is a little ugly. Although Zhao Gou adjusted his emotions in time, what others can't see is the huge dragon hidden in the sky.
The palms under the robe could not help but clenched into fists.
Zhao Gou's heart was filled with this sense of humiliation, especially when Lu Shinang's eyes showed no respect at all. The way he looked at him was not like looking at the aloof emperor, and even Zhao Gou looked at him in his eyes.
A hint of ridicule.
If it had been anyone else, he might have gone crazy on the spot, but after Zhao Gou took a deep breath, his face was suddenly filled with joy, and he said to Lu Shinang: "What the Lu Qing family said is true."
Yes, if it hadn't been for the reminder from the Lu Qing family, I wouldn't have thought of this. With the achievements of the Song King, he should indeed have the right to open the mansion."
While speaking, Zhao Gou looked at the ministers below with a serious expression and said, "Do you have any objections?"
In this court hall, after a night of turmoil, many figures suddenly disappeared from the densely packed court hall, such as Gao Qiu, Cai Jing, Li Bangyan, Wang Fu and others.
When Chu Yi led the army into the capital, he immediately sent people to their mansions to control these people.
Although some people noticed something was wrong in time and wanted to escape, few of these people were able to escape. After all, the four gates were sealed, and there were even a large number of sentinels outside to block the capital, which meant that they wanted not to alert anyone.
Leaving the capital quietly without anyone being present is not an easy task at all.
Almost a third of the people in the court were missing, and many of the remaining people were still in a state of shock.
Standing there at this moment, many people were like clay sculptures. Not to mention speaking, they did not even dare to make any small movements, for fear of being spotted at this time.
Even a fool can see the difference between Zhao Gou and Chu Yi. Even if Zhao Gou showed great reliance on Chu Yi, no one would believe that Zhao Gou really relied on Chu Yi. As for Chu Yi's reliance on Zhao Gou
There is no loyalty at all, I'm afraid no one will believe it.
In this situation, who dares to do anything? If he is misunderstood, wouldn't it be too late to cry?
At this moment, a look of expectation flashed through the depths of Zhao Gou's eyes. It was impossible for Zhao Gou to refuse Lu Shinang, because he was supported by Chu Yi as emperor. If he refused Chu Yi's reward,
If so, wouldn't it be an obvious way to tell others that he is dissatisfied with Chu Yi?
Since he can't express his objection, it doesn't mean that others can't.
Just like Chu Yi couldn't directly ask Zhao Gou for a reward, so Lu Shinang, as a general of Chu Yi's line, naturally spoke for Chu Yi.
What Zhao Gou wants is for someone among the courtiers below to stand up and directly express his opposition, which will at least give him a room for relaxation, right?
If possible, Zhao Gou would not even die to grant those privileges to Chu Yi. You must know that once these privileges are given, it will be difficult to take them back unless there is absolute certainty.
However, in the midst of Zhao Gou's expectations, the courtiers below were like quails, with their heads hanging down one by one, as if they had not noticed Zhao Gou.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Gou felt a little disappointed. He expected these people to stand up for him, but he really thought too much.
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Gou said slowly: "Since no one objects, the reward for King Song has been decided, and an imperial edict will be issued later."
Chu Yi, who was sitting there, just stood up, slightly arched his hands towards Zhao Gou and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The enthronement ceremony ended smoothly, and Zhao Gou officially became the new king, changing his name to Shaoxing.
In the northwest, Tong Guan, who was in charge of the army, looked at the secret letter in front of him and slapped the table next to him. The table turned into ashes immediately, which showed that Tong Guan's palm had
How amazing the power it contains is.
Sitting under Tong Guan were several generals from the Northwest Army, such as Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun and others. Perhaps because of Chu Yi's intrusion, many famous generals from the early Southern Song Dynasty actually appeared in the Northwest Army and one
He rose to prominence and was regarded as a confidant by Tong Guan.
Several generals looked at the angry-looking Tong Guan with doubts on their faces. What kind of news was this that made Tong Guan so angry? Could it be that the Xixia people tore up the alliance and plundered the border lands again?
?
Liu Guangshi saluted Tong Guan and said, "Ms. Tong, is there any bad news in Beijing?"
As Tong Guan's confidants, these people naturally knew that this secret letter came from the capital. They were in the northwest, but that didn't mean they didn't know anything about the outside world.
Chu Yi raised his troops from the south of the Yangtze River and headed straight for the capital under the banner of Qingjun. The momentum was overwhelming along the way. In fact, the news could not be hidden from them at all.
It's just that Chu Yi's troops were marching so fast that the people responsible for delivering the news had no time to deliver the latest news, so they didn't know what was going on in the capital now. After all, the latest news about Chu Yi
It was Chu Yi who was blocked in Yingtian Mansion by an army led by Zhong Shidao.
In the view of Liu Guangshi and others, apart from the news about the capital, Tong Guan would not be so moved even if the Xixia people invaded the border area repeatedly.
Tong Guan calmed down his excitement and handed the secret letter to Liu Guangshi to read.
Liu Guangshi took it and glanced over it. The next moment, Liu Guangshi trembled, with an unbelievable look on his face and exclaimed: "How is this possible? This is impossible..."
It turned out that the secret letter mentioned that Chu Yi's troops had successfully defeated Yingtian Mansion, had entered the capital, and supported the ninth prince Zhao Gou to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.
No matter which one of these pieces of news it was, it was so unbelievable. At the same time, Liu Guangshi also understood why Tong Guan's reaction was so big.
You must know that the reason why Tong Guan was able to keep his word in the army and frighten the morale of the army was precisely because of the trust from the emperor Zhao Ji.
Without Zhao Ji's trust, it would be difficult for Tong Guan to gain a foothold in the military. After all, Tong Guan's identity meant that it would be very difficult for him to gain recognition from the border troops.
However, Tong Guan's ability is really not bad. Although there is a suspicion of using Zhao Ji's banner, Tong Guan relied on his own abilities and methods to win over a large number of northwest army generals, and promoted some outstanding generals to
Under the influence, just like Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun and others, they were all discovered by Tong Guan. Otherwise, even if these people have natural talents and no Bole, they will not have much influence as ordinary people.
the difference.
Just like Yang Zhi, Lin Chong, Xu Ning, Hua Rong and others around Chu Yi, Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun and others also have the imprint of Tong Guan on them.
These people hold high positions in the army by virtue of Tong Guan's promotion and trust. If something goes wrong with Tong Guan, Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun and others will be directly implicated.
Now there is news from Beijing that Tong Guan's biggest backer in Beijing, the current Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji, has suddenly become a mascot-like decoration. No wonder Tong Guan's reaction was so big.
Everyone, you look at me and I look at you, but you don't know how to comfort Tong Guan.
At this moment, Zhang Jun said excitedly: "Ms. Sir, why don't we learn from Chu Yi and raise an army, directly lead hundreds of thousands of elite border troops to kill the capital, clear the emperor's side, and protect the emperor..."
Tong Guan just glanced at Zhang Jun lightly. If he could, he might not do that, but Tong Guan still knew Chu Yi quite well. It was absolutely impossible for a person like Chu Yi not to think of this. Although he
He said he didn't know how Chu Yi would deal with him, but Tong Guan dared to say that as long as he made any changes, Chu Yi would definitely have a way to check and balance him.
Shaking his head slightly, Tong Guan said to Zhang Jun: "Don't mention this again in the future. Otherwise, if you lose your head, don't blame me for not reminding you."
Zhang Jun looked frightened and said quickly: "Please bear this in mind, general."
In just a few days, a group of fast horses came straight to the Western Army camp.
The leader entered the military camp and said, "Where is Tong Guan, supervisor of the army? Your Majesty's decree is here, why don't you come and receive it soon?"
All the generals looked at each other in confusion, but after a short while, Tong Guan hurried over, bowed down to the angel who delivered the decree in the commander's tent, and said, "My lord, Tong Guan, I respectfully listen to the imperial edict."
The angel glanced condescendingly at Tong Guan, and his cold face suddenly turned into a smile. He stepped forward and said to Tong Guan: "Your Majesty has a decree, and the child supervisors do not need to kneel down..."
Listening to the angel reading out the content of the imperial edict, Tong Guan's expression changed. Finally, after reading the edict, the angel said to Tong Guan: "Jianjun, please accept the edict."
It turned out that in the imperial edict, Tong Guan was named the Prince of Tai'an County, rewarded with a thousand taels of gold, and rushed to Beijing to meet the emperor.
After sending Angel Gong out of the commander's tent, Tong Guan's face immediately turned gloomy when he returned to the commander's tent. Liu Guangshi gritted his teeth and said: "I dare to say that this imperial edict is definitely not the emperor's original intention, but must be the method of the newly promoted Song King Chu Yi.
, he wants to seize the military power from my husband."
Zhang Jun also nodded and said: "My lord, you must not be fooled by Chu Yi. If your majesty really makes the decree, I'm afraid he won't recruit my lord to the capital."
While they were talking, a figure appeared outside the commander's tent. When that figure appeared outside the commander's tent, Zhang Jun and Liu Guangshi all looked towards the outside of the commander's tent.
Both Zhang Jun and Liu Guangshi are strong men in the realm of heaven and man. With such strong cultivation, it is extremely simple to have insight into every move around them.
So when that person appeared outside the commander's tent, he naturally couldn't escape the attention of several people.
Tong Guan stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and immediately saw a very inconspicuous-looking Xiao Huangmen being grabbed by him.
Seeing the panic-stricken look on the little yellow door, Tong Guan had a cold face and said solemnly: "Who sent you here? Why are you secretly eavesdropping outside the handsome tent?"
Xiao Huangmen just smiled, suddenly untied his clothes, and then slowly pulled out a secret edict from the lining of his clothes, and then said to Tong Guan and others, "Tong Guan takes over the edict."
Everyone was stunned, and Tong Guan reacted. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he slowly bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, Tong Guan, accept the order."
Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun and others were listening. They were very curious, who was the real angel and who was the fake? But they soon understood what was going on.
These two imperial edicts are both true. After all, they are both stamped with the emperor's seal. However, one of the two imperial edicts came from Chu Yi's intention, while the other only came from the emperor Zhao Gou's intention.
In Zhao Gou's secret edict to Tong Guan, his words were sincere, as if he regarded Tong Guan as his most trusted confidant, and he even promised in the imperial edict that Tong Guan would be crowned a one-word king in the future.
The little yellow gatekeeper handed the secret edict to Tong Guan and whispered: "Tong Jianjun, you also know what your majesty means. For the sake of the Song Dynasty and for your majesty, you must sit in command of the Western Army and take charge of the Western Army for your majesty. Otherwise,
Once the Western Army also falls into the hands of Chu Yi, I am afraid that Your Majesty will never be able to make a comeback."
