After listening to Di Yong's relays and requests, Zhao Xu did not agree to Di Yong's request.

However, Zhao Xu still arbitrarily selected this candidate who was responsible for attracting the army of the Great Yue Kingdom - Lu Huiqing, but he didn't expect that for this point, Lu Huiqing, Cai Dao and Zhao Xu were heroes who saw the same thing!

Zhao Xu has just taken charge of the government, and he wants to restore the new law, punish the conservative ministers and those wealthy families in the north, and prevent them and the queen mother from fighting back together. Among the civil officials, with the help of Zhang Dian, the Cai brothers, and the Zeng brothers, they will definitely be able to stabilize the situation.

The rest is to stabilize the situation of the forbidden army in Bianliang City. Gao Zunyu is a waste who can't be supported, he has failed the expectations of the Empress Dowager Gao Taotao for him, and in the past few years since he returned to Beijing, the people of the three yas in Beijing have changed a whole lot of people for him. Gao Taotao was fine when he was alive, but as soon as he died, Di Yong stopped among the forbidden troops, and those subordinates before immediately turned around.

It's not that these people are ungrateful, it's not that these people are afraid of Di Yong, but they all know that Di Yong is standing with an outstretched hand. At this time, whoever dares to come forward will definitely be targeted by the ruthless executioner of Zhang Dun, and no one wants to be the chicken used by the police monkey.

Therefore, Di Yong must stay in the capital in the past few years, not to mention, the popularity of the 'human appearance' in Renzong's mouth among the people of Bianliang City is no worse than Cai Dao's 'fortune boy'.

Now that the matter has become a foregone conclusion, when Cai Dao entered the palace to meet Zhao Xu, he did not mention anything about Lu Huiqing again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's not as good as this, Di Aiqing is indeed not suitable to leave Beijing at this time, but in order to praise his heart of serving the country, I think that Di An can be appointed as the commander of this southern expedition." What Cai Dao didn't expect was that Zhao Xu actually came up with such a personnel appointment whose brain hole was not much smaller than a black hole.

In this regard, Cai Dao naturally tried his best to dissuade the other party.

To be honest, if Zhao Xu's personnel appointment only considers military matters, Dean is still the most suitable candidate.

First of all, Dean had already followed Cai Dao to the sea once, and with the experience of a sea expedition, Dean was more experienced by all the other serving generals.

Secondly, Dean and Cai Dao have a good relationship, and the age difference is not too big, and he can also listen to Cai Dao's advice, so this expedition, Cai Dao, the military advisor, does not have to worry that the marshal who leads the army is a person like Gao Zunyu who has no ability, is jealous, and interferes with military plans.

In the end, Zhao Xu could not use the old ministers left by the first emperor for the rest of his life, he was still young, and he still had to cultivate a group of civil servants and generals who were loyal to him. So, this time, he plans to cultivate Dian as a henchman.

Moreover, the plan to raid Thang Long City from the sea did not require Zhao Xu to dispatch a forbidden army with one soldier and one soldier, nor did it require the imperial court to provide military rations, and only weapons, which must be provided by the imperial court. Cai Dao's blacksmith shop on Yizhou Island has been upgraded to a steel factory, but pig iron and steel are very much needed in all aspects of Yizhou Island, and there are still many places where these two products are used, and Cai Dao does not want to expose his hole card.

Therefore, Cai Dao himself and those military generals united to spend money to buy weapons that were eliminated by the imperial court but could still be used, and the Foundry Bureau was able to get funds to replace the weapons in the hands of the forbidden army, and the money under him was all included in Zhao Xu's inner treasury, killing three birds with one stone.

Zhao Xu naturally agreed.

Just when Cai Dao was thinking about how to make Zhao Xu give up this decision.

Di Yong was the first to 'kneel' out, before him, he really wanted to make this immortal achievement, but it didn't mean that he just watched the official family push his nephew and the entire Di family into the fire pit!

There are two generals in the Di family, there is no problem, and there are three generals of the second generation of the family who are in the northwest at the same time.

However, one is in the center and the other is leading the army, so there is a problem.

"Your Majesty, by all means! Never! Di Yong knelt on the ground at this time and prayed loudly.

“……”

“……”

The other ministers who were discussing together in the palace tried their best to dissuade Zhao Xu,

Zeng Zhao said more pertinently and listenedly, and said: "Your Majesty, it is indeed inappropriate for Dean to be handsome. He was still too young, and he hadn't been through a battle. Those generals won't agree either. ”

"Your Majesty, when Guo Sikong went on an expedition to the south, although he did not do his best, he also played a national prestige on the Fuliang River. However, when you ascended the throne, because of your old age, he had already been allowed to return home, but he was still belittled by the traitors to Luzhou. Even if Guo Sikong asked to return to his hometown, he still did not get the permission of the imperial court. Those traitors despise the majesty of His Majesty, and their jealousy of the heroes is obvious. Therefore, His Majesty can appoint Guo Sikong's third son, Guo Zhongxiao, as the commander to fulfill his father's last wish. Cai Dao looked at Di Yong, who was pleading for Di'an, and suddenly thought of someone, so he came out of Chen Zhuodao.

After speaking, Cai Dao lowered his voice and added, "Your Majesty, he is a nominal one." When you meet him, just say it beforehand. Now, General Dean can be the vanguard. Of course, if this Guo Zhongxiao really has the ability of his father, then congratulations to His Majesty for another talent. ”

Although Cai Dao's last sentence was small, the ministers in the Qinzheng Palace could hear it clearly.

"Yes, Daochang Cai is a good candidate! Your Majesty, the first emperor used his father, and His Majesty used his son, this is a beautiful talk for the ages! Yang Wei is really smart, and he pointed out another meaning of Cai Dao's recommendation of this candidate.

If Guo Zhongxiao really has to be used to win the Great Yue Kingdom, this is a beautiful talk for the ages.

Not to mention the eternal, even after taking the Great Yue Kingdom, the people of the world will also praise Zhao Xu for not only knowing people, but also daring to use people.

The remaining ministers also strongly agreed that Guo Zhongxiao should be appointed commander of the Southern Expedition.

This is, as long as Zhao Xu reluctantly agreed with everyone's unanimous opinion, however, he was inevitably a little uncomfortable in his heart, the people recommended by Luo Guozi were so suitable, but he had just appointed two people by himself, and he was denied another one.

Now that the matter has been settled, Zhao Xu is not in the mood to continue to talk with the ministers at this time, so he ordered Liang Shicheng to send the ministers away, and he plans to rest for a while.

But Cai Dao insisted on staying, because he had more important things to discuss with the officials.

After everyone left, Zhao Xu completely relaxed, lying on the top of the collapse, and said weakly: "Daochang Cai, if you have something to say, if you have nothing to do, hurry up." I'm upset when I see you now. ”

Cai Dao completely ignored Zhao Xu's attitude and said the truth: "Your Majesty said this, in fact, Poor Dao was happy in his heart. If, in the future, His Majesty sees Poor Dao again, but there is no sadness or joy, Poor Dao will take the initiative to leave Bianliang City and travel in all directions. ”

"Humph! That's what I hate about you the most. Zhao Xu said hatefully.

"Your Majesty, Poor Dao is a few months younger than you, and he is a monk, but he has repeatedly recommended several ministers to you, which is indeed a bit arrogant. But Poor Dao did this, nothing more than to let His Majesty's rule have no more sages, besides, those who are also familiar with Poor Dao, Poor Dao really doesn't want them to continue to waste time. Cai Dao is not arguing, but speaking from the heart.

The people recommended by Cai Dao before were indeed suffering from the party struggle.

Zhao Xu asked unconvinced: "Speaking is better than singing, why did I appoint someone myself, and you all stood up against it?" ”

"Your Majesty, do you really think that appointing Dean is really good for the Di family? Have you forgotten how Di Qing died in the first place? It's the elderly Guo Sikong, wasn't he tossed by those traitors in the end? Fortunately, this time you did not send out this personnel appointment, if it is issued, the Di family will not say that Di An's life is not guaranteed this time, even Di Yong will not be able to protect its leader in the future. ”

"You Luo pot, stinky Taoist, this is my country, can't I still be the master?" After listening to Cai Dao's words just now, Zhao Xu jumped up from the collapse and pointed at Cai Dao's nose with his finger.

Cai Dao was not moved by Zhao Xu's sudden outburst of anger, and said indifferently: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten?" At the beginning, when the first emperor implemented the new law, he also thought so. But what about in the end? As soon as the first emperor passed away, Sima Guang dared to change his mother to his son, not only abolished the new law, but also dared to completely empty you. Have you really forgotten that? ”

Cai Dao's words deeply stung the soft place in Zhao Xu's heart, and Zhao Xu suddenly sat down again.

"Your Majesty, do not be discouraged or impatient. Don't forget, you're younger, younger than all of them. Once next year's imperial examination begins, won't all the people of the world be in your favor? After saying that he was depressed for most of the day, Cai Dao reminded Zhao Xu.

"Say it! Who are you going to recommend? Zhao Xu buried his head in his arms and asked weakly.

"Your Majesty, this time, it's not who you want to recommend, but you have to vacate two important official positions!" Cai Dao said solemnly.
