In Lingyun Hall, others surrounded Xiahou to toast, but Xiahou Ba held Pei Du's hand tightly, and said half-drunk and half-awake: "In order to give way to you, your brother has gone back to his hometown in Jinzhou to retire, but you can't live up to your brother's hard work." ”

"Don't worry, Otsuka Zai, my brother has explained what to do, and my foolish brother understands what to do." Pei Du also seemed to be a little drunk, with a stiff smile on his face.

"Pei Qiu is very good, very nice. You must also be like your brother, always advancing and retreating with Xiahou Valve. Xiahou Ba increased the strength in his hands, and Rao is Pei Du, as a great grandmaster, felt a little painful.

He hurriedly said: "Pei Valve swears to follow Otsuka Zai to the death, and always follow Xiahou Lord." ”

"Okay, very good, as long as you do what you say, the old man will definitely not treat Pei Valve." Xiahou Ba got the answer he wanted to hear, so he let go of his hand and turned to the next target.

Pei Du secretly took a sip, grabbed the right hand with the white mark, retracted it into his sleeve and wiped it.

Pei Du left the tiger's mouth here, and Cui Yan fell into the clutches of the devil again.

"Lao Cui, the old man didn't recommend you to the middle school order, don't you be emotional?" Xiahou Ba repeated his old trick and grabbed Cui Yan's hand hard.

He knew that he was becoming Otsuka Jae, and the most unhappy thing was Cui Valve and Pei Valve, so he needed to beat them one by one.

Cui Yan didn't have Pei Du's martial arts, so he grinned in pain, and spoke with a trill.

"Why, it will, the old man knows that it is the old county king's love for me. What's more, the old man is the only horse leader of the old county king, and he is only happy in his heart. ”

"Are you telling the truth?" Xiahou Ba stared at Lao Lingjun.

"It's more real than real gold." Cui Yan smiled bitterly.

"Haha, okay, when you make a birthday, the old man will help you and the whole hereditary prince." Xiahou Ba let go of Cui Yan's hand at this time.

"Oh, that feeling is so good......" Cui Yan rubbed his wrist and thanked him too much.

。

On the return journey, the first emperor saw the scene when he came - there were flowing water seats everywhere on the street, and the common people only cared about eating and drinking, and they didn't even care about visiting His Majesty the emperor, who was difficult to leave the palace.

This made the initial emperor feel very uncomfortable, and said to Du Hui in a dark voice: "This is the old horseman, who deliberately did it for the widow." ”

"Possibly." Du Hui sighed and said, "But where Your Majesty can't see, the Xiahou valve has also set up a flowing water seat. In order to win people's hearts, they have done everything they can. ”

"It seems that even if the widows don't do it, they won't wait too long." The shadow of the initial emperor's eyes became thicker and thicker, allowing Du Hui to call Lu Yun in.

"Your Majesty." Lu Yun bowed and saluted.

"There is no turning back from the bow." Huang Fuyu's eyes were still looking at the lively flowing water seats. "The widow has placed all his bets on you, but don't let me down."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the ministers have been arranged, and the old man would never have expected that Otsuka Zai was the pit we dug for him." Lu Yun's tone was extremely firm.

"Well, that's up to you." The Initial Emperor closed his eyes in disgust, not wanting to look at those foolish people who were in the way.

。

The guests of Lingyun Hall did not disperse until dark. Xiahou Ba summoned a group of backbones in the valve to discuss matters in the study.

The middle and high-level managers of the valves were very excited, and they couldn't help shouting: "The general trend is set, the general trend is set!" ”

It seems that Xiahou Ba became Otsuka Zai, and Xiahou Ba won the game, just waiting for the harvest of the throne.

It's no wonder that these people are so happy, it's really that Otsuka's position is too important! More than a hundred times more important than the king of Nalaoshzi and Jiuxi......

There is a saying that 'if the name is not right, the word is not good, and if the word is not good, the thing will not be done', this Otsuka Jae gave Xiahou the name he dreamed of!

In the past, Xiahou Ba served as the Zhongshu Order, although he also said that he was the same, covering the sky with one hand, but he was still stuck in the framework of the three provinces and six ministries, but the Menxia Province is now a virtual entity, and there is no law to issue an order in the Zhongshu Province, so that he can monopolize the power.

But now that Xiahou Ba has become Otsuka Zai, everything is different. The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were all controlled by him, and the politics of the large and small dynasties were decided by him. Therefore, the sixth department will report directly to him in the future, and Cui Yan's Shangshu order will naturally be set aside.

Xiahou Ba can even justifiably transfer Pei Valve's 200,000 Zhenbei troops to the interior to disperse and dispose of them, and digest this big trouble......

"Hahaha, now look at the surname Cui surnamed Pei, how can he still violate our yang and yin?" Xiahou Lei smiled and said: "I have long seen that they are not pleasing to the eye, if they didn't always have their own ideas over the years, we would have already achieved a big thing!" ”

"Yes, at today's birthday banquet, looking at the expressions of those two lords, it is really exciting." Xiahou Li also rarely agreed with Xiahou Lei: "I hope they can recognize the situation and obediently obey orders in the future, so that they can still have a soup to drink." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Xiahou and said with a smile: "No, what do you think of this Zhongshu Ling?" ”

"What the two uncles said is that I am also extremely happy," Xia Hou smiled without being hurt, and said with a slight hesitation: "But this matter is so smooth, it always makes me feel a little unsteady in my heart, and it feels like a dream." ”

"Big brother has a point." Xiahou Bupo also had the same worries, but he was worried that Xiahou would feel that he was too talkative, so he endured it and didn't say anything, and now that he saw that the eldest brother opened his mouth, he also had no scruples and said: "The emperor's hand seems to be pushing us to the opposite side of Pei Valve and Cui Valve." In the future, when the uncle exercises the authority of Otsuka Zai, it is inevitable that he will have a conflict with them. ”

"Hey, that's a matter of time." Xiahou Li sneered when he heard this: "When we sit on the country, we won't let them jump down!" ”

"But what happened in the future has been moved to the present, and I am afraid that it will affect the unity of the various valves and give the emperor a chance." Xiahou frowned and said, "I'm afraid that the emperor also has such plans." ”

"Hmm." Everyone in the study was calmed down by Xiahou Bupo's words, and Xiahou Ba looked at Zhu Xiuyi and said, "What do you think, sir?" ”

"The concerns of several people are valid, but they are not fatal and will not have much impact on our overall plans." Zhu Xiuyi shook the feather fan lightly and said with a faint smile: "In the humble opinion of the students, the reason why the emperor threw out the temptation of Otsuka Zai is to change the lord and make concessions in the matter of the country. ”

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Xiahou Lei was stunned for a moment and said: "The eldest brother became Otsuka, and there is no reason to give him concessions." ”

"You know what." Xiahou Ba took a sip and said: "Mr. is right, Huangfu Yu made a full gesture today, and the old man is really not good at forcing him too much." Don't forget, the old man, this Otsuka Zai, is the first time that the big mystery has been set up, and if he gets in the way, the old man is afraid that he will not be able to take office for three or two years. ”

"Oh, I see," Xiahou Li said suddenly, "This is an exchange." ”
