Chapter 183: One Step to the Heavens

Cui Guangyuan knelt in the Zichen Palace, stunned. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

I don't know how long it took, and Gao Lishi's shrill voice sounded in his ears: "Lord Cui, the emperor has left." ”

Cui Guangyuan raised his head, and the hall was empty.

"What emperor?" Cui Guangyuan thought that he had just knelt on the ground and had a dream.

"Lord Cui's words are contempt for the Holy One! Don't dare to talk nonsense! "Colliers speaks like a loyal elder.

"Where is this?" Cui Guangyuan couldn't believe what he had just heard and seen.

"Zichen Palace!"

"Lord Gao, the lower official entered by mistake, not intentionally, please take the lower official out quickly!"

"Master Cui didn't enter by mistake!"

"Lord Gao's subordinates have no grievances or enmity with you, why do you bother!" Cui Guangyuan selectively forgot about the emperor, and his brain returned to the state where he had just entered the Zichen Palace, believing that Gao Lishi had set a trap and lured him into the Zichen Palace.

What happened in between, was erased from his mind.

It's no wonder that what happened in the middle was too unbelievable and beyond his imagination.

The emperor had already determined that he was harboring a rebel general, but as a result, not only did he not connect his nine clans, but promoted him to an official.

The emperor is wise, it is impossible to do such a ridiculous thing, the only explanation is that nothing happened just now! He just had a whimsical daydream!

"Lord Cui Fengzhao came to Zichen Hall to discuss matters, how could he enter by mistake!" Colliers was calm.

"Xia Guan is just a Jingzhao Shaoyin, and in terms of official rank and responsibility, he shouldn't enter the Zichen Palace!"

"Have you forgotten that the emperor has made a golden mouth and a jade word, and he has crowned Lord Cui as Jing Zhaoyin!"

"Kyung Zhao Yin! Could it be true? ”

"Master Cui has doubted the words of the Holy Chrysostom three times and twice, and he is guilty! The old slave just didn't hear it! Gao Lishi sighed: "Master Cui, as Jing Zhaoyin, entering and leaving the Zichen Palace, is a matter of duty, how can he enter by mistake!" ”

Cui Guangyuan let out a long breath.

Now, he's finally come back to his senses.

Everything that just happened is real, even though it is so incredible.

Because, he saw two portraits hanging in front of him, one was Ning Zhongliang or Bu Yunfei, and the other was Schwarzenegger or Bayegu.

Cui Guangyuan, who was out of the clouds, immediately fell into ecstasy!

This Jingzhao Yin is less Yin than Jingzhao, just one word less, but the nature has undergone a qualitative change, and it is not just the difference between the principal and deputy positions!

Jing Zhao Shaoyin is just a transactional official, to put it bluntly, he is a senior staff member of Jing Zhao Yin! And Jing Zhaoyin is a high-ranking official of the imperial court, an important minister of the imperial court!

The third grade and the fourth grade seem to be only one grade apart, but this grade declares that Cui Guangyuan has since entered the sequence of important ministers of the imperial court!

In fact, in the Tang Dynasty politics, Zhengyipin is an honorary nature, if someone is crowned as a Zhengyipin by the emperor, it can basically be determined that this person will withdraw from the political situation from now on, and he can retire to the end.

Those who really participate in the government and have the right to make decisions are the second-rank and third-rank officials.

The second grade and the third grade, it seems that there is a difference between high and low grades, but in fact, there is almost no difference in power, and some are only differences in seniority.

Jing Zhaoyin, a third-grade official, is even more awesome than the six Shangshu.

Jing Zhao Yin holds the administrative power of the capital Chang'an!

And Cui Guangyuan, Jing Zhaoyin, also has the position of General Yulin, he can mobilize the Chang'an garrison!

This means that Cui Guangyuan has the military and political power of Chang'an at the same time!

This is unique since the founding of the Tang Dynasty!

At least in Chang'an City, Cui Guangyuan's actual power, at least in name, surpassed that of Yang Guozhong, the prime minister of the dynasty.

It is no exaggeration to describe the current Cui Guangyuan with one step to the sky!

As a high-ranking official of the third grade, his entry into the Zichen Hall today was by no means a mistake, but the power he should enjoy!

"Tall, tall, tall, why is this the emperor?" Cui Guangyuan asked anxiously. Jing Zhaoyin is the coveted official position of the minister of the DPRK and China, and the emperor actually gave him Cui Guangyuan this important real shortcoming, not anyone else! This is something that even Cui Guangyuan himself can hardly imagine.

"It's not because of them!" Colliers pointed to the portrait.

"Because two rebels ......"

"Master Cui, this is the third time!" Gao Lishi looked like he hated iron but not steel: "Didn't the emperor say it, these two are not traitors!" If Lord Cui still doubts the emperor's golden words, the old slave will not dare to take care of Lord Cui anymore! ”

"They are not traitors! So what are they? ”

"They are the loyal martyrs of the Tang Dynasty!" Gao Lishi pointed to the portrait and said: "This is the Xiao cavalry captain who was sealed by the emperor himself, the envoy of the Shaanxi County Festival, Bu Yunfei, and General Bu!" General Bu served the country loyally, attacked and destroyed the Luoluo River, and killed the rebel general Ashina Tiele, with outstanding merits, slandered by traitors, and suffered strange injustices from the world. And you, Lord Cui, found out Bu Yunfei's grievances, did not avoid danger, resolutely took in Bu Yunfei, saved people from danger, broke through all kinds of obstacles, and finally cleared the clouds and mist, and washed away Bu Yunfei's grievances! The emperor is grateful to Lord Cui for your righteous deeds, which promoted you to Jing Zhaoyin! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Xia Guan was indeed righteous and courageous, and he couldn't bear to see Bu Yunfei being wronged, so he stepped forward! Cui Guangyuan hurriedly agreed, and only now did he come back confused, it turned out that he had stepped on shit luck!

Ning Zhongliang and Schwarzenegger turned out to be the heroes of Changshan City.

Cui Guangyuan was scared for a while, and got goosebumps all over his body.

Fortunately, he didn't know Bu Yunfei's true identity.

In fact, Cui Guangyuan, like others, has long heard the truth about Changshan, and also knows that Bu Yunfei and Baye Gu killed the world's number one brave general, Ashina Tiele, and even knows that Bu Yunfei and Yang Guozhong have a holiday. Therefore, he, like all those who know the truth about Changshan, is silent.

If Cui Guangyuan had known that Bu Yunfei lived in his mansion, he would probably have made a secret to Yang Guozhong!

Everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door and cares about the frost on the tiles, which is Cui Guangyuan's principle of life.

Bu Yunfei died unjustly, and it has nothing to do with him Cui Guangyuan.

For the sake of a step Yunfei, to offend Yang Guozhong, the world's first minister, this kind of thankless contribution, Cui Guangyuan will never do it!

Therefore, if Cui Guangyuan knew Bu Yunfei's identity in advance, he would face two endings:

First, if you are high in the secret to Yang Guozhong, Yang Guozhong will inevitably attack Bu Yunfei. He was tantamount to helping Yang Guozhong kill the loyal ministers of the Tang Dynasty. And the emperor obviously already knows the truth about Chang Shan, once he knows that Bu Yunfei died in the hands of Cui Guangyuan, he will never spare him!

Second, take it seriously and be brave to help Bu Yunfei avenge his grievances. Then Yang Guozhong can't spare him!

In both endings, Cui Guangyuan will die an extremely ugly death.

But the reality is that without his knowledge, he avoided these two tragic endings and obtained an incomparably bright future - one step into the ranks of important ministers!

"Master Cui should go to Jingzhao Mansion to take office immediately." Colliers urged.

"But Cui Yuan, what about Master Cui?"

The current Kyung Zhao Yin is Cui Yuan.

Gao Lishi lowered his voice: "Lord Cui Yuan has another important task, originally, the old slave shouldn't talk too much, it's just that Lord Cui is not an outsider, and he is replacing Lord Cui Yuan as Jing Zhaoyin, so it's okay to talk about it." Cui Yuan has just been promoted to the envoy of the Jiannan Festival and has already gone to Sichuan to take office. This matter has not been made public by the emperor for the time being, and Lord Cui knows it in his heart! ”

"Cui Yuan sat on the Jiannan Festival! Why? Cui Guangyuan was taken aback.

Jiannan Jiedu envoy is one of the top ten jiedu envoys in the world, with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands, and has always been served by senior officials of the second grade, and he is the real feudal official who holds the power of life and death on one side. Bu Yunfei's Shaanxi County Jiedu envoy can't be compared with Jiannan's Jiedu envoy at all.

"Cui Yuan's matter, Master Cui don't ask more!" Colliers said, turning around and leaving.

Cui Guangyuan walked two steps quickly and followed Gao Lishi: "This matter, the lower officials are brave, please remind Gao Daren!" ”

Although Cui Guangyuan is squirming, he is not confused, and it can even be said that in some aspects, he still has a gambler-like shrewdness.

The emperor promoted him to Jing Zhaoyin because he helped Bu Yunfei, which Cui Guangyuan did not dare to fully believe.

has been mixing in Chang'an City for a long time, and Cui Guangyuan has already seen through the reality in the Tang Dynasty.

He knew very well that this time the emperor suddenly appointed him as Jing Zhaoyin, and Bu Yunfei was just an opportunity.

Jing Zhaoyin's official position is not as prominent as Prime Minister Shangshu, but people who know a little bit about politics know that Jing Zhaoyin is a pivotal bargaining chip in the Tang Dynasty's politics!

Jing Zhaoyin's personnel changes often indicate that there is some kind of crisis within the imperial court, or that a storm is about to break out.

It is indeed reasonable for the emperor to promote and reward Cui Guangyuan because of his meritorious service. However, the emperor could have granted him an official position such as the squire of the six scholars. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, no emperor has ever taken Jing Zhaoyin as a reward!

Cui Guangyuan immediately woke up from the ecstasy.

Emperor Tang Ming is entrusted with a heavy responsibility to him!

But the problem is that he doesn't know what the "heavy responsibility" is!

This made Cui Guangyuan very worried. In particular, the original Jingzhao Yin Cui Yuan actually sat on the Jiannan Festival envoy!

Cui Guangyuan already had a premonition that the emperor's appointment of him was a layout. In Chang'an City, a change is quietly being launched!

But the emperor doesn't seem to have made up his mind yet.

Today, in this Zichen Palace, from Emperor Tang Ming to Gao Lishi, there is not a word about "heavy responsibility"!

The more Tang Minghuang and Gao Lishi kept their mouths, the more serious the situation became!

Cui Guangyuan has been dragged into a political storm, and he is in the center of the storm.

Doing things for the emperor, if this is in peacetime, it is a great honor, not only can you make political capital, but also make a lot of money by the way.

But it's not the time of day!

Cui Guangyuan has always been far away from the political core of the Tang Dynasty, but he can also vaguely feel that some kind of great change is brewing within the Tang Dynasty!

As an outsider, to venture into the political core of Datang is to take a huge risk!
