Everyone thought that the emperor would really summon Li Mi as he said, as he said, as he said, as an official position similar to an adviser in the Ministry of War, with no limit on rank, it may be a scholar who has studied the art of war, or it may be a meritorious general. That night, the emperor's appointment edict was announced, and the court was in an uproar.

Li Mi was promoted to the secretary of the military department, and he was still the only one. Cao Jie, the original secretary of the Ministry of War, was soon retired as the secretary of the Ministry of War as soon after he succeeded Lan Jing. The military general is the secretary of the military department, this is the second time that the new emperor has done a "ridiculous thing" after taking power, and everyone knows that the errand of the military department should be served by the civil minister.

Li Mi can be good at literature and martial arts, and he can be regarded as a Confucian general.

Such a big change in the imperial court also made people more and more confused about what Su Yan was going to do. On the one hand, Liu Yu was arrested, but on the other hand, he repeatedly promoted Liu Yu's descendants and subordinates, saying that it was to win over and divide the relationship between Liu Yu and these descendants, and it would not be possible to appoint key posts in the DPRK and the Central Committee, and if Li Mi and Sui Yi conspired against the rebels, it would inevitably cause immeasurable consequences. The officials thought to themselves that the emperor, who was now becoming more and more sophisticated, would not fail to think of this.

What's even more unusual is that on the second day of the Lunar New Year the next day, Cao Jie, the former secretary of the military department who had just been dismissed, was appointed as an ambassador and sent to the military camp. It's as if the emperor had long seen Cao Jie unpleasant and pushed him to die. The imperial court beheaded several military envoys in a row, and everyone thought that this Cao Jie would go and not return.

After all, the most lively time of the year in Chang'an City is from the tenth to the fifteenth day of the first month, and the traveling merchants from all over the country will gather in Chang'an City to participate in the annual lantern festival at this time, and the prices in Chang'an City are the lowest at this time. The people are not having a good time this winter. The low stock of grain is basically unsustainable. Even if you have money, you can't buy food and daily necessities now. This kind of life is very sad for the people.

This is still the case at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and the life of the people in other places in Guanzhong is not much better. The situation in Guanzhong only depends on the reaction of the military, but the military has not moved until now, and has not said that it will rebel or obey.

The officials and people of Chang'an City were in a very anxious mood for another two days, and the visit to relatives and friends that was supposed to be stopped at this time. People want to know what results the military camp can bring back. On the fourth day of the first lunar month, Cao Jie, who had only been there for two days, returned to Chang'an City unharmed, and brought back the conditions that the rebels had made to the imperial court:

Immediately release Liu Wenyan's family and allow Liu Wenyan to return to the barracks.

When the ministers of the imperial court learned the news in the Yaqian Palace, they were as confused as Su Yan, could it be that Liu Wenyan was not in the rebel camp now? What is the purpose of the military asking Liu Wenyan, it seems that he will go back to "regain control of the overall situation", but how can a former military commander who has lost power have so much power? It could be smoke grenades released by the military.

What the specific meaning of the military is still to be known after deliberation in the imperial court.

"The rebels probably want us to hand people over." Su Bi spoke to Su Yan first. Liu Wenyan's position in the rebel army is not shallow, which also proves that the emperor's previous actions are not wrong. The search for Liu Wenyan should continue now, which means that Liu Wenyan is likely to remain in Chang'an City. ”

Originally, Su Bi spoke like a mouthpiece for hundreds of officials, and what she said was basically a harmony, but after the new emperor removed several important officials one after another, the hundred officials became cautious, and they could detect that Su Bi who appeared was not very pleasing to the new emperor, and the consequences of catering to the wrong one were very serious. And Baiguan obviously heard her "pertinence" to Liu Yu from Su Bi's words.

"Ladies and gentlemen, is that so?" Su Yan looked around at the ministers in the Yaqian Palace, and the ministers lowered their heads and were silent, each thinking about their own little Jiujiu in their hearts.

It doesn't matter what it means, the key is what the new emperor wants.

The emperor promoted Sui Yi and Li Mi one after another, and was very disgusted with Su Bi's attitude, does that mean that the new emperor wants to release his suspicions with Liu Wenyan and summon Liu Wen to seriously enter the court to check and balance Su Bi?

"Back to the emperor, old minister...... There are some different opinions. Zuo Xianglan and said.

Su Bi glanced at Lan He, and said in her heart that this Lan He was really a treacherous and cunning villain with an unfirm position, and he was originally submissive to her, but today he actually wanted to openly disagree with her.

Su Yan pretended to be surprised and asked, "Lan Xiang, tell me, how do you think about it?" ”

Lan He said cautiously: "According to the old minister, it may be ...... Old and confused words...... This is likely to be a discordant ploy by the rebel bandit leader Hua Ji'an. ”

Su Bi said angrily: "Who is the surname Hua going to separate?" Are you or Hongu? Since you know that you are old and confused, don't make a big deal of nonsense in front of Your Majesty! ”

Su Bi has reined in her temper after Yuan Bolang's death, mainly because she wants to get the support of the hundred officials for her, she has not scolded her colleagues so loudly in the court for a long time, this time her attack made the hundred officials realize that this is a "little woman" who is not easy to mess with, as long as she disagrees with her, she will use her voice to convince you!

Su Yan glanced at the emotional Su Bi and said, "Why is the Fourth Emperor Sister so angry? This is a court discussion, what is my opinion for all Aiqing, the four emperor sisters complain like this, do you want to blame me together? ”

Su Bi sighed and saluted: "The concubine doesn't dare!" ”

Su Yan comforted: "That's okay, Lan Xiang continued. Who exactly do the rebels want to drive a wedge between them? ”

This is not a question that needs to be asked at all, who to separate, no need to ask is also to separate Liu Yu and the court, the more the rebels seem to attach importance to Liu, that is, the more they don't have a good heart, and now the court has not caught Liu Yue is not a secret at all, the news of the military camp is closed, but Chang'an City is so big that it is difficult to block the news. Even when he knew that Liu Wenyan had not been arrested, Hua Ji'an was still an important person with the imperial court, and it seemed that he was reminding the imperial court that you should quickly arrest Liu Yu and kill him.

The new emperor looked at Lan Xiang with burning eyes to find the answer, and he just wanted to find out the matter through Lan He's mouth.

Lan He felt that he was being used as a gun, and he had to obediently submit: "Back to the emperor, the rebels should want to separate the relationship between the emperor and the Marquis of Wuyi." ”

When a sentence came out, the people in the court seemed to be relieved, and someone finally told the "facts", so they didn't need to be the first birds. The ministers felt admiration for Lan He's spirit of "not afraid of death and brave sacrifice", and how much courage it took to tell the "truth" under Su Bi's coercion, this was not an obvious sign that he would be retaliated against afterwards. These ministers asked themselves if they would not openly say that it was not a wise person to ask for trouble, but Lan He, who has always been cunning and cunning, would not think of this?

Su Bi was also very suspicious, in the past, this Lan He was also very acquainted, why is he so blind today?

She immediately recalled that in fact, the new emperor had already met Cao Jie earlier when he summoned the minister to discuss the matter, and only Lan He and Han Sheng, who were discussing the epidemic of the victims, were present. Su Bi glanced at Su Yan, and said in her heart that Lan He's "lack of acquaintance" was probably instructed by Su Yan.

Su Bi said: "Your Majesty, this matter is still in speculation, even if the rebels really want to separate the relationship between the imperial court and Liu Wenyan, it is also wishful thinking of the rebels, and now the whereabouts of Liu Wenyan's family are unknown, even if the emperor has the heart to explain, he will not come back to continue to serve the emperor." ”

Su Yan suddenly frowned and said, "Master is not that kind of person. ”

Baiguan sighed in his heart, Su Yan still called Liu Wenyan "master" at this time, which was a signal that the new emperor would reconcile with Liu Wenyan at any time, provided that Liu Wenyan showed up in Chang'an City. But who knows if Liu Wenyan really didn't go to the barracks, or was in Chang'an City, or had already fled with his family?

The next discussion is no longer of much meaning, in fact, the emperor has made the tone clear, now is to first resolve the threat of the rebels to the imperial court, you can use all the available strength, and you can even talk about reconciliation with Liu Wenyan, the political enemy who was still incompatible before, and even sell Su Bi, the mainstay of the imperial court at this time.

Su Bi was very annoyed, but she was also a little gloating, it was already past noon when she came out of the Yaqian Palace, and the warm sunlight shone on her face with a somewhat grim smile, which looked a little sad.

"It's not your wishful thinking?" Su Bi muttered disdainfully.

Liu Yu's disdain is justified, now not only is she Su Bi instigating Su Yan to embarrass Liu Wenyan, but also because Liu Wenyan noticed the signs of ominous signs and ran away first, now Su Yan unilaterally wants to resolve the contradiction with his good master It is simply a fantasy, Liu Wenyan will honestly come out and join the court and kill himself?

Su Bi was thinking about it, preparing to go home and have lunch with Chai Jin and her son, she felt cold to Chai Jin in the past few days, and was ready to be a good wife and mother today.

As soon as she took two steps, she felt footsteps behind her, and the faster she walked, the slower the footsteps behind her, and the slower the people behind her. Su Bixin said who was "following her", and turned around to find that it was Lan He, who had just sung against her. At this time, Lan Hezheng had a gloomy face, and when he saw Su Bi turning to look at him, he immediately stopped and even had the potential to turn around and flee.

"Blue hue? You are really old and vigorous, and you are competing in the court, so that our juniors can only look up! The juniors are polite here. Su Bi mocked people, and the yin and yang weird tone made Lan He feel cautious from the bottom of his heart.

His Royal Highness Xinzhujun smiled. Lan Hebao said with a smile.

"Needless to say, the emperor instructed you to say that just now, right?" Su Bi showed an expression of "I have already seen through you", and said, "Don't be complacent too early, you just want to talk about reconciliation with the surname Liu, and it depends on whether the surname Liu accepts your affection." ”

Lan He sighed helplessly: "Your Royal Highness Xinzhujun, can't you see that the old minister was forced?" The old minister doesn't want to either. This time, the emperor had already planned to do so, and the old minister heard from the father-in-law of the inner supervisor that the emperor told a nobleman in the palace that Liu Wenyan's whereabouts had been found, and Liu Wenyan was hiding somewhere in Chang'an City. You said that if the knife was on Liu Wenyan's neck, the emperor wanted to release his suspicions with him, so could Liu Wenyan refuse? ”

Su Bi was stunned on the spot when she heard this, what she didn't expect was that Liu Wenyan was really still in Chang'an City, and he was actually found by Su Yan. This is the biggest crisis for her. (To be continued......)
