Chapter 680: Who Should I Trust?
The wind blew the wind chimes on the tower of the city gate, and a group of forbidden soldiers were already lined up along the wall of the main gate of the palace city.
And no matter how well these forbidden soldiers are trained, at least at this time the aura is taken out.
"See Your Majesty." Fan Yi, the general of the Left Guard, saw the people who strode up to the city gate, and hurriedly bowed his hand respectfully. On the other side, Pei Ji, the official Shangshu, also brought several ministers to meet him. In addition to the forbidden soldiers and soldiers in the entire Da Sima Gate, there were only a few or six officials left.
As for where the rest of the people went, everyone knew it.
According to the ceremonial process, the hundred officials greeted him at the foot of the stone mountain, and Chen Ji would parade the army on the Miyagi Grand Sima Gate. At that time, Li Xinchen will lead the army to stay outside the city for a short time to rectify, and the hundred officials will take this opportunity to return to the Great Sima Gate to review with His Majesty.
It's not time yet, Xu Ling, Wu Mingche and the others should still be on their way over.
"Flat." Chen Ji waved his sleeves, slightly irritable. Someone had already sent the situation on the dock to the dock.
Xu Ling and Wu Mingche rushed to invite Li Xinchen, which had already made Chen Ji feel a heavy pressure. Only those who tend to be inflammatory, will naively think that the East Palace is already covering the sky with one hand in the court.
After all, it is Xu Ling and Wu Mingche who have really mastered a lot of manpower, material resources and network resources, and the old ministers of the Three Dynasties are not just talking, their protégés and former officials, and the subordinates who have been promoted and appointed over the years can completely re-form the team of a dynasty.
What's more, Xu Ling and Wu Mingche themselves have considerable leadership skills, which means that this group may not be like Li Xinchen's small group struggling to survive in a desperate situation and constantly creating miracles, but it will not look like the East Palace, which is actually a plate of scattered sand inside.
The reason why the East Palace is strong on the outside and in the middle is because Chen Shubao's spiritual pillar has not played much role, and Shen Jungao, Fu Wei and others who are now presiding over the East Palace, as well as Jiang Zong, Kong Fan and others who are fortunate to take the position, are obviously difficult to stand up and single-handedly coordinate the entire East Palace group - other people in the East Palace will not easily obey their dispatch, and it is impossible for His Majesty Chen Ji to watch his successor completely become a puppet at this time.
These are the bottom lines, which cannot be touched, and people with a discerning eye know that at such a critical moment in the struggle of the court, a group does not even have a leader, and it is simply impossible to exert its full strength.
This kind of imprisonment and restriction naturally leads to the fact that the East Palace group is destined to be huge, but there is no way to help Chen Ji.
Chen Ji knew this very well, so he never imagined that he could directly move the team of the East Palace over to replace these people in the court now.
But now Li Xinchen made Chen Xuan feel panicked, Xu Ling and Wu Mingche, the civil and military officials in the court, were on Li Xinchen's side, so there were very few courtiers that Chen Xuan could rely on.
I don't know if Xu Ling and Wu Mingche will fall to Li Xinchen in the end, but it is certain that although these two people are still unable to move for the time being, they will take down the capital of the Chinese martial arts, and Chen Wei will also have to consider the direction between the government and the opposition, but it is certain that these two people will no longer be able to use themselves in the future, at least in the matter of dealing with Li Xinchen.
Maybe the one standing on the city wall now is the last courtier he can trust. Chen Ji thought silently, looking at the stone mountain in the distance.
Gold, silver, money, titles, and even his favorite daughter, Li Xinchen is like a huge bottomless pit, no matter how much he pays, in the end, Li Xinchen is still ghosted. Could it be that what I paid in the end must be the throne and the country?
"Your Majesty, Xiao Mu Gong and Da Sikong are here." Fan Yi said respectfully.
Chen Ji tilted his head slightly, why Fan Yi was transferred back He knew very well that Li Xinchen's impeachment and the endorsement of Xiao Maha and others made this Jingzhou assassin who had been guarding Jingzhou for many years not even have the opportunity to participate in the follow-up battle in Jingzhou, and returned to Jiankang Mansion alone as the general of the left guard to command the forbidden army.
It can be said that this is the biggest victim of Nan Chen's side in the Battle of Jingzhou.
And the ones who hurt him were naturally Li Xinchen and Xiao Maha.
At this time, Chen Ji didn't have time to think about what Fan Yi had made such a mistake, and behind the upcoming Xu Ling and Wu Mingche, there seemed to be Li Xinchen's shadow standing, which made Chen Ji have a deep powerlessness and even fear.
He is like a traveler in the water, trying to grasp the straw that saves his life.
"Good work." Chen Ji said with a smile.
Fan Yi was obviously surprised by His Majesty's sudden condolences, but he immediately lowered his head slightly to hide the smile on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Where is the minister's duty." ”
"Good, good!" Chen Ji stretched out his hand and patted Fan Yi's shoulder, "Today, you have a meritorious guard, and after you go back, I will arrange for the Inner Mansion to reward you." ”
It was simply a pie that fell from the sky, and Fan Yi was overjoyed for a while.
After being in the middle of the government and the opposition for so long, Fan Yi can also guess why Chen Xuan suddenly showed favor to himself, Li Xinchen is now a rising star, and this new star is too bright, even covering the light of Ziweixing, so Chen Xuan needs someone to stand up and help him suppress it.
Obviously, Fan Yi is the person chosen by Chen Ji.
If it is someone else, I am afraid that I will have to weigh it in my heart at this time, although His Majesty's trust is very important, but the opponent I will face is too strong. Needless to say, Li Xinchen, a little demon, is now standing behind Li Xinchen, Xiao Maha, even Xu Ling, and Wu Mingche and other old demons and powerful figures, and if you want to challenge Li Xinchen, you are actually going against half of the government and the opposition.
It's not an easy thing to do, and you can't keep your head if you don't make trouble.
What is the fate of Chen Shuling, the assassin of Yangzhou who was in the limelight for a while, everyone knows it in their hearts. The prince is still so down, if he is replaced by a person who does not have royal blood, I am afraid that he will be directly in a different place.
But for Fan Yi, this is indeed a poisonous pie, he knows that it is very dangerous, but he is more urgent to gain strength to defeat Li Xinchen.
Fan Yi was relegated back to the capital, and the soldiers and horses in his hands were only left with these forbidden troops, and although Xiao Maha, who had the military power in the world, was also a general of the Left Guard, it was not the same concept at all. At the beginning, Xiao Maha's Left Guard General was used as a springboard, and now this official position is obviously for Fan Yi's retirement.
If Fan Yi doesn't do anything, the end may be to die of old age or be exhausted and return to the field.
In this way, the future of the entire Fan family is also bleak, although his younger brother Fan Meng is still in Huaixi at this time, but on the left is Xiao Maha, and on the right is Wu Huijue, all of whom are people in Wu Mingche's system, one is Wu Mingche's cronies, and the other is simply Wu Mingche's son.
