Zhang Yichen, the imperial historian, and Feng Deyi, the imperial historian, came together.

The three eunuchs stepped forward to greet them.

"Dean Zhang and Dean Feng are here early."

Feng Deyi said with a smile, "What we do in Yushitai is all things that offend people, and we can't sleep well every day, so we naturally get up early." ”

As he spoke, he took off his cloak, and a little eunuch stepped forward to take it for him. Feng Lishi's eyes swept and found that his cloak was not simple, it seemed to be made of fur from the artesian ghost country, and it was all excellent materials.

"You are also supervising for Your Majesty, and you have worked hard."

While speaking, Zhang Xutuo of the Privy Council and deputy privy envoys Song Laosheng and Zhou Dewei also arrived.

After they arrived, the ministers of the Hanlin Academy and the Political Affairs Hall also arrived, and more than 20 people poured in at once, all of them were purple robes and gold and jade belts, so they were not dazzling.

Everyone was noisy and saluted each other.

Feng Lishi smiled and invited everyone into the hall.

In the middle of the temple, a huge table is placed in the middle, and this is a huge round table.

This is completely different from the traditional way of deliberating, where the emperor is in the first place, with a column on the left and right below, one for each person.

But now the Xuanzheng Palace is a big round table.

The emperor is still in the first place, but he is no longer far away from his ministers, nor is he condescending, but closer.

"Please!"

Although the Xuanzheng Hall has changed to a round table for deliberations, the number of seats will not be ambiguous at all.

Everyone has their own position, who is left and who is right, who is in front and who is behind, it is not allowed to be sloppy.

On the left-hand side of the emperor's position, there is the Pingzhangshi of the Political Affairs Hall, and the order of the nine Pingzhangshi is the left and right Zhongshu Shilang, the left and right door Shilang, the left and right servants, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, and the Household Department.

Although the three provinces each have their own governors, they are called Shangshu Lingzhong Shuling, but the imperial court does not give it and does not really worship it. In order to distinguish the main and secondary, the left and right are set up, the left is the long, and the right is the zuo.

The emperor also promoted the left and right Zhongshu squires, the left and right door squires and the left and right servants, all of which are positive and second-grade. And the Shangshu orders of the three high-ranking officials are all from the same product.

The titles of Jiaping Chapter are all prime ministers, and they are all positive and second-class.

The three divisions and three princes are the positive one, and the three orphans are from the one.

On the left hand of the emperor are the nine prime ministers of the political affairs hall, each in order of their own position.

On the right hand are the nine scholars of the three halls and six pavilions of the Hanlin Academy.

Behind the prime minister of the political hall on the left, there is the Imperial Historical Tower. On the right, behind the Scholar of Hallym Academy, is the Privy Council.

Then opposite the emperor, were the three eunuchs of the three inner provinces.

Twenty-six ministers, sitting in a circle.

Feng Lishi walked to his place and sat down, and then immediately changed into a serious face, his gaze swept over everyone.

"Everyone, tomorrow is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the day after tomorrow is the Zhengdan Great Dynasty Meeting, recently the government and the opposition have been talking about the war in the Western Regions, many people are commenting on the war in the Western Regions, the saint has to read a lot of chapters about this every day, originally the battle of the Western Regions is a great victory, I have a great Qinwei town in the Western Regions, opening up the territory, but one after another impeachment chapters, but the saint is not in a good mood. In the battle of the Western Regions, we should talk about merit first, and then talk about it, we can't let the soldiers shed blood and sweat on the front line, and as a result, they won a big battle, and they have to be dealt with in the end, so won't it chill the hearts of the soldiers? ”

"It's still the saying that the saints often say, fight together for big things!"

Although Feng Lishi, the palace supervisor, is only from the third grade, among the people present, none of them are closer to the emperor than him, so many times, his words, especially those spoken before the start of the imperial meeting, are undoubtedly profound.

Hou Mo Chenyi, the servant of Zuo Zhongshu, nodded, he was born as a military general, and he was in favor of praising the battle of the Western Regions, even if there was such a thing as slaughtering the city and surrendering, he also thought that he would not hide his merits.

The scholars looked at each other, obviously not quite accepting the tone set by Feng Lishi, and some even chuckled.

The meeting has not started yet, but there is already a feeling of gunsmoke, Feng Lishi sighed in his heart, it is estimated that it will be difficult to be peaceful today.

The emperor has not yet arrived, but tea has already been served.

The fragrance of tea was lingering, and the scholars only drank tea there, refusing to say a word, making it clear that they would wait for the emperor to come.

"The emperor has arrived!"

The door of the temple was pushed open, and the emperor entered in a dragon robe.

He untied his cloak and greeted the crowd, and finally walked to the top seat and sat down.

"Let's get started."

Luo Cheng's gaze swept over the twenty-six imperial ministers and said with a smile.

The palace maids who were still standing in the hall just now all withdrew from the main hall at this moment, the door of the palace was closed, and the imperial guards of the Qianniu Guard stood and guarded, and no one was allowed to approach.

Wang Jue stood up, he was the secretary supervisor, originally only in charge of the royal book, but now, he is an important personal secretary of the emperor, and the imperial meeting is usually presided over by him.

"Today's Xuanzheng Palace is deliberating, let's discuss the war in the Western Regions first, and now that the war is over, it's time to sum it up. Those who have meritorious deeds are recounted, those who have done meritorious deeds are discussed, those who should be rewarded are rewarded, those who should be promoted are promoted, and those who should be punished are also punished. Today, we have to set a tone, so that the military department and the officials can do things according to the rules, and they can't delay it forever. ”

"Hou Mo Chen Xiangguo, you come and say it first."

Zuo Zhongshu Shilang and Pingzhang Shi Hou Mo Chen Yi stood up.

"Relying on the heavens to protect and fight the saint Hongfu, this war in the Western Regions started suddenly, but in just one month, he defeated the rebellious Qiuzi and Rat Nishi, did not recruit a soldier from the Central Plains, nor did he recruit a single man, only with the soldiers and horses of the three counties of Anxi and the surrounding counties, he successfully won the battle, and it was indeed successful. To tell the truth, when we first received the information from Anxi, we were still worried about whether this war would cause turmoil in the Western Regions, whether it would block the Silk Road, whether it would lead to a major rebellion in the Western Regions and the Turkic tribes, whether it would affect the big decision of the imperial court to recuperate, and we were worried that it would cost a lot of money and food, and fatigue countless soldiers and people. ”

As soon as Hou Mochen came up, he gave Cheng Yanjin the blame, and the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy were dissatisfied, no more than the martial arts prime minister in the political affairs hall, and the three palaces and six pavilions in the Hanlin Academy, but they were all from civil servants, and most of them were celebrities.

They were very dissatisfied with the behavior of Cheng biting Jin Xu Monk who was not respectful to the imperial court, started a border war without authorization, and even directly slaughtered the city and destroyed the country.

Kaiyuan Hall University scholar Wen Yanbo slowly spoke, he spoke very slowly, but there was a restrained momentum, although it was not Hou Mo Chenyi's kind of outgoing momentum, but it was still not weak Hou Mo Chenyi, "Sage, our Hanlin Academy has also been very concerned about the war in the Western Regions recently, and the causes and consequences of the battle in the Western Regions are also carefully studied. It is necessary to return to the government hall for a new vote. ”

The emperor sat there, and he had already anticipated the controversy that might arise in today's Xuanzheng Palace, so at this time, he was not at all surprised by the Hanlin Yuan's rejection of the political affairs hall. However, the emperor was a little surprised, it was surprising that the nine prime ministers of the Political Affairs Hall were able to reach an agreement so quickly.

Hou Mo Chen Yi asked Wen Yanbo, "May I ask the scholars, which ones have signed and approved the red, and which ones have not been approved?" ”

Wen Yanbo said slowly, "Cheng Biting Jin is guilty, Monk Xu is guilty, Ashina is guilty, Ashina Sheer is guilty, and Ashina Sheer is guilty······"
