Volume 3 The Storm Rises Chapter 212 The Fight Against Each Other Is Endless
"Deacon Shang. Liu An's majestic voice sounded, although the pitch was not high, but it made the entire Qiming Hall quiet.
Shang Peng is the chief deacon of the Senate, and Liu An did not call Shang Peng Aiqing at this time, obviously there is a formal appointment to be announced.
After hearing Liu An's call, Shang Peng lifted his hem, then knelt on the ground again, raised his hands half-clasped above his head, and said respectfully: "The minister is here." β
"The candidate for the deputy marshal of the Kunlong Army will be selected by the Senate, and it will be played in front of the hall tomorrow morning, is there any difficulty?" Liu An held the imperial pen in his hand, and wrote something on the paper in front of the desk, the crown that covered the dragon's face kept shaking, and there was a crackling sound in the hall where the needle could be heard.
Shang Peng said with a full heart: "The minister obeys the order." β
Liu An stopped what he was doing, and continued to ask Shang Peng: "Calm down, what does Aiqing have to propose about the Supervision Division?"
Shang Peng stood up unhurriedly, and in the process of getting up, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but they were all vetoed by him one by one.
Originally, in Shang Peng's plan, the position of the coach should naturally be controlled by him, followed by the deputy marshal and the supervisor, on the surface, the position of the supervisor is more prominent, and the role is more obvious, but Shang Peng thinks that the position of the deputy marshal can play a greater role.
If the emperor and his family have completely mastered the movements of the Kunlong Army, even if the position of the supervisor falls into the hands of the Queen Mother's party, it will not play much role, because although the right to supervise the commander is very large, but his right is essentially to supervise and inspect, if he dares to ignore it, or even cover the officials who have passed the Kunlong Army, the two commanders are not blind, and they will let him come nonsense, so Shang Peng does not take the position of the supervisor very seriously, and completely controlling the Kunlong Army is his truest goal.
However, what Shang Peng didn't expect was that Li Linqian actually put forward the idea of letting Liu An take command and set up two deputy marshals, if it was an ordinary army, or it was not Liu An sitting on the dragon chair, Li Linqian put forward such an idea as a stroke of genius, but it was used on the body of the Kunlong Army, and on Liu An, who was eclectic in life and work, this idea was tantamount to giving up the command to him, how could he Shang Peng not laugh at it? And the ending was as he expected, the command of the Kunlong Army was easily obtained.
Now that he has taken the command of the Kunlong Army in his hands, it can be said that the political demands of the emperor's family have been completed, but Shang Peng remembered the conversation between Lin Jinmin and him before.
Secretly glancing at Lin Jinmin among the ministers, Shang Peng coughed lightly and said to Liu An: "Back to the emperor, the minister thinks that there is a most suitable candidate, and I hope the emperor will come to decide." β
Hearing Shang Peng say that he was the most suitable candidate, Li Linqian's heart was shocked, did the emperor secretly say that he didn't plan to leave them a little way to live, but did he want to fight for a fish and break the net?
In fact, it is not to blame that Li Linqian did not see Shang Peng's far-reaching and thorough, but only to blame that the position of the superintendent is too powerful for the party of the queen mother, so Li Linqian does not attach importance to it, and it is precisely because of this that Li Linqian misjudged Shang Peng's intentions, which made the position of superintendent and superintendent at his fingertips also difficult.
Liu An put down the imperial pen with a smile, blew the pen and ink that had not yet dried, and then covered the few big characters he had written with yellow silk, looked up at Shang Peng and asked, "Oh? Aiqing is talking about it, who is the most suitable?"
Shang Peng smiled slightly, and said sonorously: "Wind Cinema Tisi, Lord Lin Jinmin Lin." β
Xiao Canzi next to the dragon case turned his head and stared at Liu An with a smile on his face with his mouth wide open, his face was full of incredulity, and the rice paper that had just been hidden by Liu An under the yellow silk was written with three big characters on it.
Xiao Canzi, who knew that he was rude, hurriedly lowered his head, still shocked in his heart, because he knew that before today's court meeting, Liu Anke had instructed Shang Peng to nominate someone from the Heavenly Sword Academy to take on this position.
However, Shang Peng temporarily changed his hexagram and even nominated Lin Jinmin of the Wind Theater to take on this important task, but even so, Liu An actually guessed Shang Peng's intentions early on, which made Xiao Canzi not surprised, his master was really like a god.
Lin Jinmin, who was named by Shang Peng, crossed the crowd, stepped to the center, and saluted Liu An with a fist.
There was an uproar in the hall, no one thought that Shang Peng would propose that the Wind Cinema would come to stay in the Kunlong Army's Jian Rub Tisi, you know, the Wind Cinema is a disgusting place in the Imperial City, not that the people in the Wind Cinema are annoying, but who is targeted by the Wind Cinema, there is always no good fruit to eat, the Wind Cinema is famous for not recognizing the six relatives, no matter which faction you are, whether the official position is high or low, once you enter its yamen, if you want to come out, you have to shed your skin if you don't die, so everyone avoids the Wind Cinemaγ
Unexpectedly, Shang Peng actually proposed that the Kunlong Army Inspector be a person from the Wind Theater to take the position, which made the Queen Mother and her party feel desperate more than the emperor himself holding this position in his hands, the previous Wind Theater was just cowering in the imperial city, as long as everyone paid a little attention, they would not be held up, once this beast that chose people and devoured was released from the cage, it would not turn this officialdom upside down, and the panic could not be stopped.
Before Li Linqian could speak out, Wu Kuo, who was standing behind him, hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks this matter is inappropriate. β
Liu An glanced at Xiao Canzi, just smiled slightly, didn't say anything, and then stared at Wu Kuo in the audience and asked, "Wu Aiqing, do you think something is wrong?"
Wu Kuo turned his head to look at Lin Jinmin, who was smiling, and then said to Liu An: "Your Majesty, supervising the Tisi is a second-grade official position, and Lord Lin was awarded the third-grade official seal not long ago, Zhangfeng Cinema, such a promotion speed, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public." β
Li Linqian frowned slightly, he still thought that Wu Kuo hurriedly came out of the queue because he had mastered Lin Jinmin's handle, but he didn't expect it to be such an inferior offensive method, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly, it seems that today's battle is going to be a complete failure.
Sure enough, after listening to Wu Kuo's words, Liu An patted the dragon case, stood up and pointed at Wu Kuo and scolded loudly: "It's ridiculous, I have always asked about moral ability in Dacheng country, when do I need to rank according to seniority?
"The emperor is angry, the minister doesn't mean that. Wu Kuo hurriedly knelt on the ground, and kept kowtowing to Liu An to ask for guilt, Liu An took himself as an example, this can be described as a heart-wrenching word, even if he lent Wu Kuo 10,000 guts, he didn't dare to say that the emperor was not.
Liu An sat down and commanded the Praetorian Guards standing under the stage: "Hmph, come on, drag Wu Kuo out, punish him for twenty years, and fine him for one year to set an example!"
Wu Kuo's legs were weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground, but fortunately he supported his body with his head in time, and hurriedly shouted: "The minister is guilty, thank the emperor for not killing." β
Liu An waved his hand impatiently, and the two Praetorian Guards escorted Wu Kuo out of the Qiming Palace.
The ministers in the hall were all silent, especially the officials of the Queen Mother's party, who shrank back one after another, for fear of being watched by Liu An on the dragon chair, and then turned their anger on themselves.
Looking at the cowardly appearance of the officials of the Queen Mother's party, Li Linqian suddenly felt a sense of discouragement, is it worth it to fight for these people?
But now is not the time to think about this, no matter what, Li Linqian can't watch the Queen Mother's party lose in today's battle, so he clenched his fists and shouted: "Your Majesty, minister... β
"Does Li Aiqing want to intercede for Wu Kuo?" Liu An leaned back on the dragon chair and interrupted Li Linqian with his words.
Li Lin straightened his body, and then said loudly: "The minister doesn't dare, but the minister also has a suitable candidate in his mind, who is qualified for the post of superintendent." β
Liu An picked up the teacup and said to Li Linqian: "Let's see, who is it." β
Li Linqian lowered his head and said respectfully: "Back to the emperor, Ling Sheng Tianxingshui Deacon Ren Yuehe, whether it is grade, prestige, or ability, Deacon Ren is fully qualified for the position of supervising the secretary, and in order to protect the Kun Dragon Army, he also needs a cultivator with excellent strength to sit in charge, so compared to Lord Lin, the minister thinks that it is more suitable to serve as a deacon." β
After Li Linqian finished speaking, there were bursts of whispered discussions in the originally silent hall, especially the officials of the Queen Mother's party, as if they had seen the dawn of victory, and they were full of vitality again.
Liu An took a sip of tea, and then stared at the teacup and thought quietly, but as Li Linqian said, compared to Lin Jinmin, Ren Yuehe is obviously more suitable for the position of supervising the secretary, but in this way, Ling Sheng Tianxing's influence will be greatly improved, which is not a situation that Liu An is willing to see.
In order to weaken Ling Sheng Tianxing's influence, Liu An took great pains to not only support a Heavenly Sword Academy, but also excluded Ling Sheng Tianxing from the court on the grounds that cultivators were not allowed to interfere in court affairs, so in the court meeting, there was no participation of Ling Sheng Tianxing and Heavenly Sword Academy.
Now that the Kunlong Army has been established, it is to patrol the world on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and naturally there is no such thing as cultivators interfering in court affairs, and Li Linqian has also grasped the shortcomings of the Kunlong Army and put forward the statement that cultivators need to be in charge, so it is not so easy to find a suitable candidate except for Ling Sheng Tianxing and Tianjian Academy.
However, it is not easy for the Heavenly Sword Academy to find a character who can match Ren Yuehe, so how can this be?
