Chapter 124 The court is in turmoil
"You must be astonished, why did I summon you?" A faint bitterness appeared in Xia Qi's eyes, glanced at everyone in the hall, and said slowly, "I have governed a great Xia, but few people can make me feel truly trusted, and you in the hall are the people I can really trust, which is why I summoned you."

"I have summoned you for three things, and I need you to put forward your truest thoughts in your hearts." Xia Qi said this, his eyes showed a hint of hope, a hint of brightness, and a hint of pain, "The first thing is about the White Lotus Sect in Huaibei County, I transferred Gu Chaoru to Huaibei to suppress the White Lotus Sect, but Gu Chaoru was afraid of the enemy like a tiger and did not dare to confront the White Lotus Sect, resulting in the White Lotus Sect being full of bandits in Huaibei County, and the situation was rotten, and if I didn't save it, Huaibei County would disappear in my hands and become the place where the White Lotus Sect would stand." ”
"The second thing is that Beihu united with all the tribes of the grassland and secretly prepared to invade Mengbei County, in an attempt to ignite the flames of the two countries again." Xia Qi said this, with a hint of deep disappointment in his eyes, "The third thing is that I let my adult sons go to the counties to inspect in place of me, I thought that arranging them into other people's spheres of influence would set off their struggles, but who knows that things are not going further than I envisioned, they either reached some kind of agreement with the local gate lords and clans and joined forces, or they simply ignored my orders and exchanged the locations of the patrols with other brothers, and went to the location of the gate lords and clans who supported them, Growing in strength, things are beyond my control. ”
"Tell me, tell me what you think about this matter or how to solve it. I have not yet made this matter public in the court, one is afraid of causing unnecessary storms and backlash, and second, I don't want to give people a stupid feeling, or the illusion that I am about to lose control of the court. Xia Qi's eyes flashed with a deep sense of loss, his son had already torn his face with me for this dragon chair, could it be that there was really a big problem with my education method towards them?
"Qiu Mubai, as the only scholar in the cabinet, you can tell me your opinion first." Seeing the strange quiet atmosphere in the Qinzheng Palace, Xia Qi's brows furrowed slightly, and he said by name.
"Back to the emperor, these three things seem to be really distressing, but it's not that there is no way to crack them." Being named by the emperor first is certainly an honor, but it may also become a burden, but it has already happened, and Qiu Mubai can only state his views head-on.
"Oh, what a way to crack it, let's hear it." Hearing Qiu Mubai's words, he didn't feel how difficult these three things were, Xia Qi's eyes showed a hint of brightness, and he asked eagerly.
"These three things seem to be three independent individuals, but the only way to deal with these three things is to suppress them strongly, which means that they need to send a strong army to divide into two ways, one way to Huaibei County, with a strong force to completely suppress the arrogant flames of the White Lotus Sect, and the other way to Mengbei County, let Ye Zhaohui fully support this army, and deploy in Mengbei County, Weichen expected that Beihu would see the strength of Mengbei County, and he did not dare to start the war lightly." Qiu Mubai did not hesitate to say his own way of cracking.
"I didn't hear how you solved the game set up by my sons?" After listening to Qiu Mubai's opinion, Xia Qi's brows relaxed slightly, this is indeed the most effective solution at the moment, but how to resolve the situation set by my sons for themselves, Qiu Mubai really didn't say a word.
"Back to the emperor, as long as the White Lotus Sect in Huaibei County is successfully resolved, blocking or forcing Beihu not to dare to light the beacon fire, the third thing will no longer be a problem." Qiu Mubai lowered his head and said softly.
"Yes, Lord Qiu is worthy of being the most famous talent under the emperor's command, why should the princes disobey the emperor's will, it is not because the princes feel that the emperor does not feel that the strength can shock them, once the emperor successfully solves the matter of the White Lotus Sect in Huaibei County and forces Beihu not to dare to ignite the flames of war, the princes will definitely panic, and at that time, they will definitely bow their high heads to the emperor." Hearing Qiu Mubai's words, Guo Zi'an didn't understand it at first, but after thinking about it deeply, he completely understood the meaning of the words, and couldn't help but secretly give Qiu Mubai a thumbs up.
"Shen Yan, come and talk about it." Hearing that Guo Zi'an also agreed with Qiu Mubai's suggestion, Xia Qi's eyebrows showed a faint smile, but he always felt that there was a key point in his heart that he had not grasped, so with a hint of unwillingness, he asked casually.
"Your Majesty, I really want Weichen to say it, Weichen thinks that Lord Qiu and Guo Lao's suggestions are very good." Hearing the emperor's roll call, Shen Yan sighed softly, and he was eager to show his talent through this matter in his heart, but in the face of several important people in the Qinzheng Palace, Shen Yan knew that it was the best policy to keep a low profile at this time, so he had been pretending to sleep.
"Why, I listen to your words and it seems that you have a different opinion, if you have, just say and listen, don't hide it from me." Seeing Shen Yan's demeanor, Xia Qi seemed to have caught a trace of his soul, but he didn't seem to have caught anything, but he knew in his heart that Shen Yan, this kid, must have his own opinions, so he said excitedly.
"Okay, since the emperor asked Weichen to say it, then Weichen will talk nonsense." A playful smile appeared at the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, a trace of clarity flashed in his eyes, his eyes turned a few times, it seems that the court is about to make waves again, and it is a big storm, as long as the emperor makes a move, Xia Yuanxu's opportunity will appear: "Your Majesty, do you remember the three major influences that Weichen once told you?" ”
"Have I ever forgotten that these three events have anything to do with the three influences you mentioned earlier?" Hearing Shen Yan's rhetorical question, a trace of surprise appeared in Xia Qi's eyes, and he asked.
"There are associations, but how do you look at their associations?" A faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, these three things seemed to be three independent individuals just like Qiu Mubai said, but the essence of these three things was inseparable from the relationship between the gatekeeper, the staff and the successor, so Shen Yan said confidently.
"Your Majesty, the old man took the liberty to interrupt, what do you mean by the three major influences?" Hearing the conversation between the emperor and Shen Yan, Guo Zi'an's eyes showed such a strong doubt, why had he never heard of such a thing, and what were these three major influences?
"Old Eighteen, at that time, you were also there, and you explained to the teacher." Hearing Guo Zi'an's question, Xia Qidi hurriedly said some words of apology, and finally asked Xia Yuanxu to help state the three major influences that Shen Yan proposed to him at the beginning.
"Grandpa Guo, here's how it is......" Hearing Xia Qi's instructions, a trace of excitement appeared in Xia Yuanxu's eyes, originally thought that there was nothing to do with himself in the Qinzheng Palace, but he didn't expect that Shen Yan gave himself a chance to perform at the critical moment, so, with gratitude, Xia Yuanxu slowly stated that Shen Yan and his father only saw the dialogue about the three major influences and the method of cracking.
