Chapter XXXIV Transfers. Jiannan Metropolitan Protectorate!

"Holy Warrior, you're over! How can you talk to Old Sikong like this! ”

At this moment, the happiest person should be Shangguan Wu. Just take this opportunity to suppress the holy martial arts.

"Lord Sikong is very old, since the first emperor has worked hard for the Tang Dynasty, and has made a lot of contributions, and the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty have all conceded three points to him. You actually humiliated Lao Sikong in person, if something happened to Lao Sikong, would you be able to bear it! ”

After saying these words, Shangguan Wu took a step forward and looked at the human emperor on the dragon chair and said:

"Your Majesty, the minister wants to impeach the holy martial artist for having no respect for the elder, the mouth of the treasure hall is foul, the Tang Dynasty governs the country with benevolence and righteousness, and the previous words of the holy martial artist are really disrespectful! The minister suggested that the Holy Warrior be deprived of the position of Marquis of Wuhou and deprived of his military power. I have been the capital of the Tang Dynasty! ”

With Shangguan Wu's words, the atmosphere in the court suddenly became delicate, Shangguan Wu's virtue is well known in the Eastern Capital, even in the military general's lineage, he is not very welcome, although he no longer interferes in the affairs of the court, but the protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials are all over the court and the opposition, and the power in the court is not to be underestimated

"Humph!"

When Saint Wuhou heard this, he just sneered:

"Your Majesty, the minister also has a book, the minister wants to impeach Lord Shangguan, the Taiji Hall is the place where my Tang Dynasty senates and governs, not a place to teach etiquette. As a prince of the country, Lord Shangguan has been in the court for so many years, and he has almost never expressed his opinions in the court. It's rare to open your mouth today, and it's actually about the disrespect of the micro-ministers. Didn't Lu Guogong know that this kind of thing was in charge of the Ministry of Rites? The minister thought that the corpse of the Duke of Lu was not enough to take on a big role in the court, and asked His Majesty to remove the Duke of Lu State. It would be good to let Lu Guogong go back to retire. ”

"You!"

Shangguan Wu Huoran looked back, and was so angry that Shengwu Hou was like thunder, but he didn't expect Shengwu Hou to be like a mad dog, catching and biting whom. But this mad dog is a ruthless character that he can't afford to provoke.

"Holy Martial Candidate, don't talk nonsense, you don't talk nonsense!"

"Shangguan Wu, what merits have you had? Do you need to explain it one by one? , don't you know it in your own heart! According to this candidate, the Ministry of Rites is more suitable for you, and in your spare time, you can also go to a better discussion with Lord Shangguan on how to not be disrespectful! ”

Shengwu Hou said in a deep voice.

The proposal to abolish the Tuntian Army has touched the nerves of the generals of the Tang Dynasty. No matter who wants to do something about it, the soldiers will not let it succeed easily! Because this is no longer an ordinary party dispute, or a court dispute, but it is related to the defense of the entire Datang frontier and the safety of hundreds of millions of people in Datang!

"Enough! Holy Warrior Hou, Lu Guogong! Above the court is not a place for you to discuss these innocuous things! ”

In front of the Nine Dragons Steps, the Emperor's close attendant Gao Lishi finally couldn't stand it, and couldn't help but scold:

A court discussion about the dismantling of the Tuntian army has now been turned into child's play. Hearing Gao Lishi's reprimand, the court suddenly became much quieter. Although Gao Lishi is only a fourth-grade internal supervisor, everyone knows that this person has followed the emperor for so many years, just like the shadow of the emperor. Since he opened his mouth, it means that even the emperor can't stand this dispute over the reduction and withdrawal of the Tuntian army.

"Stand down!"

Above the main hall, the human emperor suddenly spoke, and his majestic voice echoed throughout the hall, revealing an undoubted taste.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Shengwu Hou and Shangguan Wu saluted in unison and stepped aside.

Saint Wu Hou smiled, obviously very satisfied with the situation. But Shangguan Wu on the side was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"Saint Martial Guard, you wait!"

Shangguan Wu's eyes flashed with a terrifying cold light, he originally thought that he could catch the Holy Wu Hou in the main hall to speak disrespectfully and contradict the old Sikong to make some trouble, but he didn't expect to be scolded by the Holy Wu Hou so much that he couldn't even speak.

"Let's go back to the normal court."

Colliers said solemnly:

"In addition, Shengwuhou, Lord Dasikong is a veteran of the two dynasties, and I hope that Shengwuhou can be a little more generous and let Lao Sikong go, after all, Lao Sikong is old."

Gao Lishi said helplessly, as an old man in the palace, he still knew the temper of the holy martial hou. If you make a mess, this is a prince who even the emperor didn't bother to discipline.

"Da Sikong is old, and the minister understands!"

The corners of Saint Wuhou's mouth rose slightly, and he said word by word.

"Your Majesty! Regarding the dismantling of the Tuntian Army, the anger of the military ministers is understandable, but Weichen also feels that what you said is not unreasonable. The barbarian Tibetans were also willing to reopen the Silk Road. For a long time in the future, the Tang Dynasty was leveled, and there was really no need for so many troops, and the annual salary of the Tuntian Army in each county and state was also a large expense, and it was only in wartime. Now there is no war in Datang, and the treasury is in an emergency. It is true that such a large number of troops are not needed. Weichen believes that half of the Tuntian army can be retained within the establishment. ”

At this time, above the main hall, in front of the hundred officials, an old man with a white head came out and spoke.

As this voice sounded, the entire hall suddenly fell silent, and both the civil servants and the military generals cast respectful glances at it.

Right Prime Minister - Zhang Jiuling!

As the right prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, the words of Zhang Jiuling, the first civil official, have extraordinary weight. That is a respectable old man, the Tang Dynasty sage who everyone admires today! Once he speaks, it will greatly affect the attitude of the ministers.

The hall was quiet, for a long timeβ€”

"Hmm."

Finally, behind the bead curtain, the human emperor spoke.

"I know about this matter, so let's not discuss it for the time being."

This sentence did not reveal the slightest emotion, but in the main hall, all the generals sank in their hearts. The emperor rarely expressed his opinion on the affairs of the court. It has always been the ministers themselves, and if the ministers can solve the problem and cannot decide the matter, the emperor will make a golden statement and send down the holy oracle.

Now the emperor has not said that he supports it, nor has he opposed it. But it seems that he has agreed with Zhang Jiuling's suggestion.

"Jiannan Capital Protector Zhang Qiu and Qiong have been guarding Jiannan for many years, and I have transferred him to the Eastern Capital. The army can not be without generals for a day, Jiannan is the protector of the house, I plan to send the loyal and powerful god general Xu Changhai to write Tiance left wing army to defend the town, what is your opinion Aiqing. ”

Just after the Shengwu Hou returned to the train, when he heard the words of the Human Emperor, his pupils shrank, and Huo's face changed. He suddenly looked at the Emperor Wu on the side.

Look at the familiar figure. From the beginning of the reduction of the Tuntian Army just now, Shengwu Hou vaguely felt that there was something wrong with the Emperor Wu King today. He had never said a word before, and now His Majesty wants to send Xu Changhai to the Jiannan Capital Protectorate, which is obviously taking the Tiance Mansion and cutting and scattering the forces of Tiance. What's even more deadly is that it is Nanzhao that the Jiannan Protectorate is directly facing! And Nanzhao has always been eyeing the Tang Dynasty, and its combat power is not much worse than Rong Di and Tubo, especially in the past few years, Nanzhao has been strong, which has brought great pressure to the Jiannan Metropolitan Protectorate, and it is definitely not a wise move to transfer Tiance to the Jiannan Metropolitan Protectorate at this moment!

And the eyes of the Emperor Martial King flashed with ten thousand rays of light in an instant, and his expression was extremely complicated. Look up.

Shengwu Hou frowned lightly, followed the gaze of the Emperor Wu King, looked at the human emperor behind the jade bead, and faintly thought of something.

And just as the Holy Warrior was thinking about countermeasures, the ministers in the main hall came out one after another to speak;

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

……

Saint Martial Hou's eyes lit up, and after looking at the expression of the Emperor Martial King, he stepped out without hesitation:

"Your Majesty, the minister is against it! Since it was only to dispatch Zhang Qiu and Qiong alone, why should he send the Tiance Left Wing Army to go. And Xu Changhai has always been subordinate to the Tiance Mansion, Zhang Qiu and Qiong were transferred to the Eastern Capital, and the successor must be selected from the Jiannan Metropolitan Protectorate, which is a tradition in the Tang Dynasty. ”

Shengwu Hou cut the railway, and as soon as these words came out, they instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal!"

At this time, a voice came, in the train, the Tianyu Divine General also stood up, the Tiance Army is very important to the Tang Dynasty, and it cannot be dispatched at will for no reason. Although the faminerals submitted letters and expressed their willingness to make friends, who can guarantee that there is nothing greasy in them?

Once the border guards fought together. When the Duhu army was unable to arrive in Hong Kong, it still had to rely on the Tiance army with outstanding combat strength. The transfer of the Tiance Left Wing Army to the Jiannan Metropolitan Protectorate is already nearly half of Tiance's troops, and such a large transfer will definitely greatly reduce the combat strength of the Tiance Army. This will be something that most generals in the army do not want to see.

The Heavenly Feather Divine General was almost certain that neither Gao Xianzhi nor Wang Zhongsi of Anxi would want to see such a situation.

"Your Majesty! Minister, equally opposed! ”

The Emperor Wu King, who had never spoken, suddenly lifted his robe and walked out of the train, and said in a loud voice.

Swish!

In an instant, the entire court was as quiet as death. Emperor Wu King, Holy Martial Candidate, Tianyu Divine General. These three can be said to be the most important existence in the army, once they express their position, they can almost represent one-third of the strength of the army!

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

……

Seeing the three important ministers in the army coming out, most of the remaining generals above the main hall came out to support. The importance of the transfer of the Tiance Army is far more shocking than the proposal to dismantle the Tuntian Army!

Both proposals were opposed by Wu. A court meeting was frozen, and everyone looked up at the top of the main hall, waiting for the attitude of the emperor.
