Chapter Ninety-Eight: I'm here.

The early dynasty was still an old-fashioned rule, the ministers shouted like a bell in the mountains, and Xiang Jingwu called the people as plain as water. Pen ~ fun ~ cabinet www.biquge.info and then officially began to discuss state affairs.

Liu Fan quietly moved his body back, moved to a blind corner of Xiang Jingwu's line of sight, leaned on the big pillar, and began to nap. The hangover has not gone away, my head is still very painful, and I am seriously deprived of sleep, and it is uncomfortable to stay up all night online in my previous life.

Liu Fan gradually fell into a half-asleep and half-awakened, but the atmosphere in the court began to be warm.

Liu Qiaode, the secretary of the Ministry of War, took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, General Chu Yi, who guarded the area of Yumen Pass by the Holy Decree, has returned to Beijing last night to report on his work, General Chu Yi guarded the frontier, and once led his troops to go deep into the Turks, breaking dozens of Turkic tribes, and made great contributions to forcing the Turkic army to withdraw his troops, and thousands of people in my Chu Dynasty were spared the war. ”

Xiang Jingwu smiled lightly: "Liu Aiqing is right, Chu Yi and the cavalry battalion led by him really lived up to my expectations, deterred the barbarians, and raised my great Chu national prestige, I really deserve to be rewarded." ”

After pondering for a moment, Xiang Jingwu said: "I want to give him the title of the general of the Xiao Cavalry Army, Feng Yi Yongbo, 500 households, and command the whole Xiao Cavalry army." Fan En, the former general of the Xiao Cavalry Army, was transferred to the military department as the right attendant, and all the soldiers who went out were rewarded exceptionally, what do the secretaries think? ”

The ministers looked at each other when they heard this, Your Majesty's reward is a bit wrong, although Chu Yi has indeed made great contributions to the imperial court, but there is no reason to be promoted so quickly. This person is only in his twenties, guarding the frontier, and by the way, he raided the interior of the Lower Turks, and he actually became a general who commanded more than 10,000 troops, and there is already a Liu Fan and Lord Liu in front, and there is another Chu Yi at this time, what is wrong with Your Majesty? Could it be that the emperor has recently preferred to promote young courtiers?

Among so many ministers, the one who can't figure it out the most is the former general of the Xiao cavalry army, Vane. One didn't make a mistake and the other was not greedy, and he relieved his military power for no reason, and whoever replaced him would feel uncomfortable. But no matter how uncomfortable you are, you can't object, after all, military power is a very sensitive thing, and a general grabs military power and refuses to let go, what is his intention?!

The ministers were still pondering Xiang Jingwu's words word by word in their hearts, and Liu Yi came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, do you think the old minister is too rewarding?" General Chu's contribution is true, but after all, he is still young, how can he take over the power of ten thousand soldiers and horses? Besides, just lead the army to the Turks to break a few unguarded tribes, this ...... It can't be considered too much credit, right? The old minister thinks that it is okay to be knighted, but it is not necessary to confer the post of general, and those soldiers who go out to fight can be rewarded according to the usual military merits, and the reward seems to be a bit of a fuss, and please think twice. ”

Xiang Jingwu nodded when he heard this, and fell into thought, military power is not a reward like a title, for an emperor, it is not only a sharp spear, but also a sharp thorn pierced in the heart, so the topic of being in charge of military power has always been taboo in the court. Liu Yi's words also faintly reminded Xiang Jingwu that it was best not to hand over the military power to such a young general, compared to seniority and loyalty, Chu Yi was far inferior to Fan En, who had been in charge of the Xiao Cavalry for more than ten years.

At this time, the ministers also began to talk to each other, whispering. This kind of sensitive topic has been repeated by hundreds of civil and military officials, and I am afraid that only the boss of the right prime minister is qualified to talk to His Majesty.

Except, of course, for those fledgling stunned youths.

There is exactly one of them. This person is none other than Young Master Liu.

It was said that Young Master Liu was sleeping comfortably, but he vaguely heard the words "Turkic" and "Chu Yi" in his ears, and Liu Fan woke up immediately. If nothing else, Chu Yi is his cousin in this life, and he should care about it. Regardless of his past or present life, Liu Fan has always been heart-digging for his family and friends.

As a result, after he heard Liu Yi's words clearly, his nose was almost crooked: This old bastard is probably in conflict with this Hou Ye. Since beating Liu Fan and flattening Liu Yi's son Liu Kuan, the two have not treated each other well, and this time Liu Yi calculated that Chu Yi was coming. Young Master Liu was not happy, and his stubborn temperament was committed, seeing that the ministers were talking to each other below, but no one stood up to say a few words for Chu Yi, and even Liu Qiaode, who was known for his integrity, stroked his beard and closed his eyes and said nothing. Liu Fan snorted coldly, since you old things don't talk about it, it's up to this Hou Ye to talk about it!

If it is said that it is for his family to go up the knife mountain and go to the sea of fire, Liu Fan may hesitate, but if he doesn't even dare to say a few words for his family, Liu Fan will feel that he is the most cowardly and contemptible waste wood. Besides, how dangerous the battle led by Chu Yi and how much sacrifice he paid, others don't know, but Liu Fan knows - the Turks are all soldiers, and they can form a cavalry army when they get on the horse, and in the era of cold weapons, the cavalry unit is almost the king of the land troops, and the Turks are not short of war horses! How could Liu Fan allow unrelated people to snatch the reward that Chu Yi deserved in order to compete for power and profit?

Seeing that Xiang Jingwu was silent, as if he was a little moved by Liu Yi's words, Liu Fan couldn't help but be anxious. I can't wait any longer, as soon as the emperor's Chrysostom opens, it will be difficult to change it.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has something to say." Liu Fanren didn't even stand up for work, so he began to speak, although his voice was not loud, but there was a thunderclap above the court, and the ministers looked left and right, trying to find out the adult who spoke.

Helplessly, Liu Fan stood in the most inconspicuous position, and if he wanted to get out of class, he had to squeeze out a way from the ministers who stood in front of him, so after Xiang Jingwu and the ministers heard this person speak, they hadn't seen this adult who had something to say stand up for a long time.

"Which Aiqing is talking? Why is there so no rules? Xiang Jingwu waited impatiently for a long time, and couldn't help but lecture with a calm face.

Liu Fan was even more anxious when he heard this, so he had to respond loudly: "Your Majesty, it's me, i'mhere." In a hurry, even English popped out.

Then Liu Fan shouted while squeezing forward: "Hey, adults, let me, let let, it's time for me to speak, borrow, thank you, borrow ......" The situation was as embarrassing as squeezing a bus in his previous life.

I finally squeezed it out, and my forehead was sweating. Liu Fan took a few steps forward and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's me, uh, no, it's Weichen, Weichen has something to say." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the position where he was standing: "Hehe, I'm really embarrassed, what's that, squeeze a little ......"

Xiang Jingwu glared at Liu Fan fiercely, and said angrily: "I know, if Liu Aiqing has anything to say, just say it." ”

Liu Fanqing coughed, and said: "Weichen thinks that what the right prime minister said just now is not true!" ”

Liu Yi saw that it was Liu Fan who came out, and he knew that this guy must have nothing good to say, so he raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said coldly: "Oh, the old man would like to hear the high opinion of Lord Shaofuqing." ”

Liu Fan said: "The right prime minister just said that General Chu Yi is too young to take charge of the Xiao cavalry army, and Weichen does not agree with this. Why can't you take charge of the cavalry at a young age? Who said that a general with troops must be old? Could it be that the great Chu can't find a young handsome man to take charge alone? As the saying goes, 'Ambition is not old, and ambition is a hundred years old.' 'Does a person have the ability to lead troops, whether he can serve the public, and whether he is loyal to the emperor or not, does this have anything to do with age? ”
