Although he had long expected this scene to appear today, the emperor had calculated the general direction, but he did not calculate some small details. However, he was very satisfied with Yue Qianqiu and his big fat son's on-the-spot performance, especially the twelve princesses who added drama to themselves. As for the other unexpected details, he didn't pay attention to them at all.

Therefore, after Li Yiming first proposed, Zhong Liang seconded the proposal, followed by a stubble of officials stood up, bowed down like planting rice and begged for his life, and after the crowd was passionate about expelling the third prince and the twelfth princess, he glanced at the first person who proposed this intention to himself, but at this moment, he was very bored and tilted his head to look at the lively Yue Qianqiu, and suddenly felt that this kid was really a lucky star.

If it weren't for Yue Qianqiu's stimulation this time, his big fat son would suddenly be so active? Even if there are many words in those words, it is inevitable that there are some assumptions, but the fat son who used to focus on fighting with his cheap nephew Li Chongming now knows that he is squeezing the minister, putting on a high posture, and even using the ethics of the father and son of the monarch and the minister to suppress people, at least the rank is much higher than before.

The emperor was happy in his heart, but his brows were tightly furrowed, and there was not a trace of a smile.

Seeing that the third prince didn't pay attention to the officials clamoring for him to be expelled, he actually recited the limerick several times in one breath, so that the faces of those impassioned officials turned blue and white for a while, and people like Old Lady Yue and Ye Guanghan, who had nothing to do with themselves, were holding back a smile and watching the excitement, and he finally had to cough heavily.

"These two distinguished guests of Beiyan have been in Jinling for too long, and it is time to go back. Since Zhong Qing is the squire of the military department and the person who seconded the British king's proposal for this matter, you should make a hard trip and send them to Bazhou. ”

Seeing that Zhong Liang was stunned for a moment, the emperor continued to sigh as if he hadn't seen it: "Zhao Aiqing, the prime minister of the Political Affairs Hall, has been in the court for many years, sleeping at night, and working hard, which can be regarded as a model for officials in the world. But now he suffered the pain of losing his mother, so he wrote to ask Ding Wei, I repeatedly wanted to save the love but couldn't get it, but I had to let him go back to his hometown to be buried, keep Ding Wei, and all his filial piety. ”

Although everyone knows that Zhao Qingya is resolute this time, it should not be something that the emperor can keep with his affection, but at this moment, after the emperor finally said this, the people who hoped that Zhao Qingya would stay could only helplessly let go of the last trace of luck, and the people who coveted the position of prime minister all held their breath.

However, the emperor did not immediately announce the choice of prime minister as everyone wished, but at the same time sighed, he threw out another bombshell news.

"Although Zhao Aiqing said that he wanted to return to his hometown to guard the system, he still cared about Dawu, so he had already recommended Ye Qing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, to me as the prime minister. I have always praised Ye Qing's courage and loyalty, and because of Pei Qing's absence in the political hall before, as a last resort, Yue Qing worked day and night alone, which was not good after all. Therefore, Ye Qing entered the political hall on the same day, so as not to have to wait for the political hall due to lack of manpower, only Yue Qing took the lead. ”

When Pei Xu heard the emperor's tone, he knew that if he didn't make some remedies, when Ye Guanghan entered the political hall, the previous things would be pressed down one by one, and he was afraid that he would have to stand aside.

Like those noble Hanlin scholars, he also vaguely calculated that Zhao Qingya would recommend Ye Guanghan, the secretary of the military department who did not have a lot of contacts, and although the other party seemed to have been at odds with Yue Taichang for many years, there was no substantive conflict, and Zhao Qingya and Ye Guanghan visited Yue's house at night before, and he also smelled a bit of unusual meaning.

Therefore, taking advantage of the temporary silence around him, as if everyone was digesting the news, even Ye Guanghan looked a little caught off guard, and he didn't know if he didn't expect the emperor to announce it on this occasion, or if he was going to make a show, Pei Xu immediately made a decision and was the first to stand up.

"Lord Ye has always been loyal to the country, and he is indeed the best person to make up for the gap in the political hall." He first praised Ye Guanghan, and then suddenly there was a turning point, "However, whether it is Yue Xiang or Lord Ye, they are all too old, and the minister thinks that the political affairs hall has not always been a rule of three people, and in special periods, it is not impossible to add one person." ”

Everyone knows that Pei Xu was bent on pulling down the old lady Yue and taking the position of prime minister, but at this moment, when his calculation obviously failed, it turned out to be abnormal, and he had to stuff people into the political hall, and he didn't know how many officials were surprised, and they secretly calculated who else in Pei Xu's party was qualified to be the prime minister.

However, before they could come up with an ugly man, Pei Xu had already put forward a candidate in a loud voice: "The minister recommends, and Yu Jianzhong, the secretary of the Criminal Department!" ”

Who is Yu Jianzhong? That is the father of Yu Changqing, one of the four sons of Jinling, when he first arrived in Jinling, he spread posts to invite boys and teenagers like a hero post, and made a suspected gathering to choose a son-in-law, but was killed by his nephew Zhao Xu Tong Yan Wuji.

In such a child's play-like party, Yue Qianqiu, who was squeezed, took the opportunity to leave, but first saw a Beiyan swordsman vs Du Bailou at the gate of Yufu, and then witnessed Master Yan Xu challenge Du Bailou with a Mo knife, and made up his mind to practice martial arts for the first time. And more importantly, that time, the old lady Yue and the eldest princess of Dongyang walked together, and it seemed that she had reached an insider deal with Yu Jianzhong.

Soon after that, the Yu Mansion enshrined the Qingcheng swordsman Du Bailou as the chief arrester of the Criminal Department, and Yu Jianzhong, the master of Yu, became the secretary of the Criminal Department.

Therefore, Yue Qianqiu really couldn't figure it out, how could Pei Xu, the prime minister who clearly had no personal relationship with Master Yu, and also belonged to the leaders of different factions in the family faction, suddenly think of recommending Master Yu?

However, when he saw his grandfather's slightly twisted brows, Ye Guanghan, who was also a little stunned, he realized that Pei Xu's move was like an antelope hanging on its horns, and there was no trace of it, which surprised them very much. When he looked at the emperor again, he saw that the emperor who had been sitting in the main hall since today, even though his face was always faint, but he was obviously calm and relaxed, and now he clearly showed a somewhat solemn expression.

At this time, Yue Qianqiu faintly felt that he seemed to have comprehended something.

Compared with the old lady Yue who walked from a small official step by step to the current position, compared to Ye Guanghan, who started from a poor scholar and walked to such a high position step by step, or Zhao Qingya before, Yu Jianzhong, the eldest master Yu Jianzhong, like Pei Xu, as a child of a family, the starting point of the career is quite high, with the help of sufficient resources and political achievements, they have been promoted very quickly, and they are only in their early fifties, which can be said to be in the prime of life!

And after Pei Xu threw out this proposal that shocked the audience, he, who had always looked a little embarrassed before, finally laughed. That smile is not necessarily smug, not sly, but it has been seen many times by Yue Qianqiu, the most common decent smirk on the official face.

"Mr. Yu is impeccable in terms of age, qualifications, and political achievements, and he can just pick up and fill in the gaps. If the emperor thinks that there is no need to add one more person to the political affairs hall, then the minister is willing to abdicate and make way for Xian. ”

Compared with Pei Xu's overstretched and inward-looking appearance before, he seems unfathomable at this moment, as if all the previous setbacks and embarrassments are all for this moment to promote Yu Jianzhong, the secretary of the Criminal Department.

At this time, Yue Qianqiu, who had completely become a marginal person that no one paid attention to, found that the little fat man who was even more unlucky than himself was still kneeling there, and he couldn't help but sigh for this unlucky prince who was easy to shine once, but was destroyed by someone. After thinking about it, he ignored the invisible confrontation at this moment, and quietly walked up to the little fat man, reaching out and grabbing his arm.

Li Yiming was really annoyed at this time, and even hated Pei Xu to the core. Originally, he suspected that he had the courage to plot his future princess, Pei Xu was the most suspicious, and now he said it, and even snatched Yue Qianqiu's lines, to drive out the third prince and the twelfth princess, his father had already agreed, Zhong Liang was even pitted, who knew that Pei Xu would come to this trick in an instant!

He knelt for a long time, but the weight of the person was large, and he was prostrate on the ground, the pressure on the knee and waist bar was great, when there was a very strong force on the arm, he who had long been unable to kneel and fell towards the person at once, especially when he was dragged to stand up, he only felt that the numb feet were like pins, if he didn't clench his teeth, he almost didn't scream.

At this moment, he only felt as if he had been lightly kicked twice in his calf, and after the initial anger, he found that the soreness that had plagued him almost like a madness had miraculously subsided, and although the soles of his feet were still a little painful, they were much better than at the beginning. He had time to glance sideways, only to see that it was none other than Yue Qianqiu who was supporting him.

Seeing a hint of gratitude in the little fat man's eyes, Yue Qianqiu glanced at him and pouted in a certain direction. The little fat man was not stupid, he immediately woke up, looked along Yue Qianqiu's line of sight, and happened to see the shocked and angry face of Yu Jianzhong, the secretary of the Criminal Department. Compared with those adults who think too much, the little fat man suddenly realized.

Yu Jianzhong may not have discussed it with Pei Xu, he was purely recommended by Pei Xu suddenly, and he was unprepared for it.

He was about to speak, when he suddenly felt that his arm was being pulled hard, and he suddenly couldn't hold back anymore, and he screamed out. Seeing that many eyes fell on him all of a sudden, he suddenly panicked, who knew that Yue Qianqiu beside him was the first to laugh.

"His Royal Highness is numb in his feet. In this way, His Royal Highness and I will leave the case before Chen Zuo, and send the third prince and the twelfth princess to the letter office first. As for the big matter of how many prime ministers are needed in the political affairs hall, everyone will discuss it slowly! ”

What the? That's okay?

The little fat man simply felt that Yue Qianqiu's excuse was really inexplicable. But as soon as his voice of opposition came to his lips, he actually saw his father nodding slightly to himself: "It's okay, Da Lang and Qianqiu will send the three princes of Beiyan and the princess of Yue back first." Chen Wuliang, you go to the Imperial Doctor Department to ask a few clever imperial doctors in the capital to take a good look at the third prince, don't have hysteria again! ”
