CHAPTER XX

Sure enough, the first to step forward was Prime Minister Zhou Chenghua.

I saw a middle-aged man. is not as strong as the general, but he is also thin. Handsome looks. Although it is not like a jade, it is also personable. Because of being an official all year round, he is a little more majestic and steady. It's just that the calculations that flash in his eyes from time to time are a little offensive.

He took a step forward and walked to the front of the temple. His eyes looked straight at Emperor Mu, but there was no previous calculation in his eyes. All that remains is full of loyalty.

"Since the founding of the country, although women have not been as disciplined as the previous dynasty, there has never been a precedent for women to go to court. The minister thought that it would be inappropriate to let Ji Jin listen to the government. ”

is Zhou Chenghua's ability. He can give Mu Di the illusion of absolute loyalty. He also has some ability to observe words and colors. The ability to speak cleverly is also something that many people can't learn.

Speaking of which, Zhou Chenghua is still a little talented. At that time, he was also the champion of the first emperor. At the beginning, it was also heroic and upright. It's just that I've been in officialdom for a long time, but I care more and more about power.

The flaws in the character are also exposed, and it is really a bit selfish. Later, he became a person who thought he was flattering and chasing fame and fortune.

This Ji Hongchang and him, logically speaking, are the leaders of the Zhou Dynasty. He is the minister of the humerus of the Great Zhou. It is said that being able to become an official to the prime minister is already the lifelong pursuit of literati students. Zhou Chenghua should be satisfied.

But people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants. But he was becoming more and more dissatisfied. He was dissatisfied with Ji Hongchang's military power over him. When Ji Hongchang was in Beijing, he was also targeted everywhere.

But that's exactly what Mudi was happy to see. If the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all looking forward to Ji Hongchang, I am afraid that Emperor Mu would also not be able to sleep well.

Seeing that Zhou Chenghua had already spoken. Many ministers also stepped forward one after another, "The minister seconded the proposal." Speaking of which, the influence of the restrictions on women in the previous dynasty has not been completely eliminated in the present dynasty. This kind of thinking can be easily changed overnight.

There are also many people who gloat and want to see Ji Jin's jokes quietly tilt their eyes to Ji Jin, wanting to see her panicked reaction after being targeted.

If you want to be a lady facing such a scene, you must be ashamed that you won't dare to see anyone in the future.

But I don't want to think that with Ji Jin's temperament and talent that day, how could he be targeted like this and retreat.

I saw that Ji Jin was not only not panicked, but also indifferent. Take a gentle step forward. Just wanted to speak up. But someone had already made a voice before her.

"Although the Zhou Dynasty has no precedent for women to go to court. But everything needs to be pioneered. If there is no awakening of Taizu and the courage to make the voice of "the prince will have a kind of Xiangning", where would there be today's Zhou Dynasty. ”

Look at the source of the sound. It turned out to be the head of the household department, Wei Kaicheng. Wei Kaicheng is not tall, and he is even more fat. From a distance, eighty percent looks like a cube.

But I am kind to people. On weekdays, he treats people with a smile. Live like a Maitreya Buddha. is also in charge of money.

He has a lot of connections in the DPRK and China. Seeing that it was him, Ji Jin also understood. I'm afraid it's someone from the Wei family.

"I don't restrict women's behavior. In front of him, Mrs. Ye went into battle to kill the enemy, and the women did not let her eyebrows. Rescue General Ji Lao in the enemy army. Later, the eldest princess of the former dynasty took charge of the stability regime of the country. We don't limit women. It's just a matter of what the woman chooses. ”

At this time, the thing that stood up was a military general. It is a second-grade dart general. Hearing this, most of the generals in the court came forward to second.

Before Ji Jin could speak, the camp was already so obvious. At this time, it was the people in the court who had already turned their eyes to Emperor Mu on the stage. I hope to figure out Mu Di's attitude through Mu Di's expression.

Mu Di's face was not leaky, he still maintained his usual smirk, and he did not speak. The knuckle of the index finger knocked on the handle of the dragon chair lightly and heavily. But he didn't mean to speak.

The temple fell silent for a moment. At this time, someone stepped forward to speak, breaking the silence.

Taishi Wang Xian stepped forward gently. "My Da Zhou has always been a talented person regardless of his background. Ji Jin's strategy is enough to throw off some people on the stage for a few streets. Such a talented person has no choice but to be used by our court, and that is the loss of His Majesty. If any of you here can make a better decision, you can refuse to go to the palace of Ji Jin. But you're not as good as Ji Jin. "Wang Xian is this person and his shortcomings. I still can't bear to see my disciples wronged.

"I think it's also all the literati here, together with me, who are not good at learning, but they are not weak female dolls. Now what kind of face does he have to oppose Ji Jin's listening to politics. This sentence was actually degraded by the Wenchen present and even brought himself. His face was a little gloomy, and he was already a little angry.

As soon as these words came out, the literati in the palace were also a little ashamed. Even Zhou Chenghua's face was a little unbearable. But he didn't refute that.

If you want to talk about today's court, there are three families who have weight in speaking. One of them is the prime minister, which is to deal with local government affairs.

The second is the Qingliu literati led by the Taishi Wang Xian. Because he is a minister, the advice made is that the emperor should also listen to it.

This third is the military general headed by Ji Hongchang. Although it is because Ji Hongchang rarely stays in Beijing, he rarely expresses his opinions. But after all, there is military power in the body. No one dares to underestimate it.

Among them, although the prime minister is to deal with local government affairs, he is also related to the six parts of power. The six ministries were appointed directly by Emperor Mu. Half-devolved with Cheng.

At this time, the two parties have agreed, and the resistance of the minister is no longer to be feared. And through Wang Xian's anger, Emperor Mu had to come forward to appease. But he can't pretend to be deaf and dumb. Mu Di pondered for a moment.

"Ji Jin, now that some people oppose you to listen to politics, and some people support you to listen to politics, you can talk about your thoughts."

When Ji Jin heard this, he stepped forward according to his words, "What the minister does is not for the sake of the official. Chen just wants to do his best to contribute to my Great Zhou. The minister is just putting forward his own political opinions. If we don't have everyone's consent, we won't do it. ”

This is already a concession. Don't divide power, don't want official names. Just put forward political opinions. There are already two forces agreeing in front of him, and it is already a little impossible to drive her out of the court. It's okay to limit Ji Jin's power like this. The ministers who opposed it before were also a little loose. But still reading what Wang Xian had just said, his face was still a little unhappy.

Ji Jin paused and continued: "The strategy made by the minister is not from the mind of the minister alone. It is the result of a careful study of all the opinions of those who came before me and all the great adults. If it is really to be discussed, the discussion is the joint work of all His Majesty's courtiers. ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the ministers turned a little brighter. It can be regarded as everyone's face.

Ji Jin sneered in his heart. As long as she is allowed to enter this court, who can tell what will happen after that. After all, in their own eyes, their little tricks are all left over by themselves. More than ten years of listening to politics is not just talking. She wants to see that with the uncertain prophet of her previous life for decades, she is in the court again. How could they cut the power of the Ji family in this life?

Mu Di saw that the people in the court were relieved even by those who objected, and he regretted that he couldn't take the opportunity to drive Ji Jin out of the court. But after thinking about it, if such a big threat is left above the court, you can rest assured that you can control it yourself.

When the prime minister saw Emperor Mu's expression, he also agreed a little, so he didn't care about the previous Ji Jin. I want to bring the topic to this year's conscription policy. "Your Majesty, it's autumn now, and it's time for this year's conscription. The veterans were also replaced to rest. Take care of your days. I've put together a roster, just waiting for Your Majesty to set a time. “

This is a disguised reduction of the power of military generals. Put your own men in. Now the generals in the army, especially the veterans, are all looking forward to Ji Hongchang. This approach is in line with Emperor Mu's wishes. Mu Di pretended to be thoughtful. I just wanted to take the opportunity to agree.

Wang Xian stood up, "Prime Minister, do you know why we insist on supporting Ji Jin's palace, not because of disagreement with your political views. It's really because of Ji Jin's talent. Did the Prime Minister know that Ji Jin made a "Military Policy" at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and Weichen thought that it was a superior strategy. I also hope that Your Majesty will be able to exercise discretion in implementing it. It has infinite benefits for my big week. ”

The adults present also had Ji Jin's "Military Strategy" at the Hundred Flowers Banquet that day. I have to say that this policy is really the best policy for the internal affairs of the Great Zhou after all the forms of the present Great Zhou have been analyzed clearly.

His eyes were full of approval. Even some of the ministers who stood behind Zhou Chenghua before were also a little shaken. Ask yourself, if it were you, you wouldn't be able to write such a strategy.

It was Zhou Chenghua, thinking of Ji Jin's "Military Management Strategy", and he never mentioned his previous autumn recruitment plan. Although he likes power, the education he has received since childhood is also the final court. If such a policy can be implemented, it will be infinitely beneficial to the Zhou Dynasty.

Ji Jin also hooked his lips and smiled. This strategy is naturally good, but it is not very beneficial to the royal power. I just don't know. If it is implemented, it will further lose the power of the royal power to manage the army. However, if they do not agree, this is the most suitable strategy of the Zhou Dynasty, and it needs to be opposed by the ministers and risk the condemnation of the world.

The reason why he dared to implement it in his previous life was also because the Ji family and Meng Ke themselves were absolutely at ease and absolutely loyal to themselves. That's it, and I've been fighting for a long time. What's more, it was Emperor Mu, who was already worried about the Ji family.

Sure enough, as soon as Wang Xian's words came out, most of the courtiers already seconded it. Although the three factions in the Zhou Dynasty were openly and secretly fighting. However, in such important matters that are beneficial to the DPRK, they are also unified. Even people like Zhou Chenghua, who are good at flattery, also agreed.

It's just such a scene, but it is the last thing that Mu Di wants to see. Sure enough, Emperor Mu on the stage frowned. I was a little displeased, but I was not good at standing on the opposite side of all the ministers.

It's just that the speed of the index knuckle hitting the dragon chair has increased a little. Ji Jin understands that this is a small habit of Emperor Mu. When Mu Di was calculating, he would knock on the chair. If you are angry, the pace will be a little faster, and if you are happy, it will be slower.

Sure enough, Li Dequan next to him saw Emperor Mu like this, and handed the hot tea he had just given to Emperor Mu in his hand. Mu Di took the teacup and took a sip gently. But the eyes are getting deeper and deeper. Duan Zhong next to him also put down the tea cup that had been handed to Emperor Mu in his hand.

Gently lowered his head and lowered his eyelids, hiding the three points of jealousy in his eyes. No matter what he does, he is inferior to Li Dequan in the eyes of Emperor Mu. It's just that the hand that pinched the dust in his hand was a little white due to the force, and the knuckles were a little white.

Mu Di put down the teacup. I've adjusted my state.
