Ye Ying's name gradually spread in the mouths of all the officials.

In the early days of the dynasty, the emperor specially mentioned General Qi's wife, the second lady of the Ye family.

"Lord Ye, I only knew that your family actually raised a daughter who thought she was talented, and this Northwest War is thanks to your daughter."

The emperor was not stingy with his appreciation of Ye Ying at all, and praised him in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.

Ye Tingwa was praised by the emperor like this, not to mention how happy he was.

"The emperor's appreciation is her blessing, but she is still young. Although he has been married to a wife, he is only twenty-eight years old, and the emperor actually gave him the title of first-class wife, and Weichen is afraid that she will be fluttering because of this. ”

"Is Lord Ye so unconfident in his daughter? Don't worry, yesterday I heard the queen praise the newly appointed first-class lady. General Qi should also know what's going on, right? The emperor turned his gaze to Qi Muyuan's body.

"Back to the emperor, Ye Ying saw the queen mother a few days ago, and it is said that the two of them are more compatible, so they went to the queen mother's palace yesterday and was a little late."

"I don't mean to blame, the queen is worried about the affairs of the harem in the palace, if Ye Ying is willing to come to the palace often to walk around, the queen has someone to talk to this heart is more comfortable."

The emperor seems to be in a very good mood today.

With Qi Muyuan, he shifted the topic to state affairs without a trace.

"Your Majesty, although the war in the northwest has subsided, because of General Ma's matter, there is still a lack of a general over there."

As soon as this topic was mentioned, the emperor also frowned.

"According to your Aiqing, which general is the right one to send?"

With the lessons learned from the last time, this selection will definitely be more stringent.

The people below really didn't dare to talk more in front of the emperor this time, in case they ended up in prison, the gains outweighed the losses, and the gains outweighed the losses.

His Royal Highness King Ming, the emperor's cousin. At this time, he stood up and recommended one: "I have a suitable candidate under my subordinates, but I don't know if the emperor is satisfied or not." ”

"Oh? Who is the right person in King Ming's heart? "There is no one to recommend at the bottom, and the few he trusts will never be able to withdraw from the capital.

Since King Ming wants to pick people out of his hands, why wouldn't he do it?

"Emperor Qiqi, I don't know if the emperor still can't remember Liang Youwei who saved your life when he went out on the expedition?" As soon as King Ming opened his mouth, he mentioned the old past.

Nangong Ming naturally remembered that incident, if Liang Youwei hadn't helped him block a sword, the person who could sit on this throne now wouldn't necessarily be him.

"I remember. It's just that after I came back that year, didn't I send someone to take care of him? I searched for a long time but couldn't find it. At that time, he was very regretful.

King Ming continued: "That's the one. He was not found before because he was rescued by a barefoot doctor who walked the rivers and lakes. Later, in order to repay the doctor's life-saving grace, he married the doctor's daughter. ”

"I also met him by chance when I went to Xizhou to inspect a year ago, and when I saw that their family was living in poverty, I helped him find an errand for the yamen in the nearest official mansion, but the emperor you know, according to his skills, he shouldn't be just a servant."

The emperor is still a little hesitant, although Liang Youwei saved his life, but now it is recommended by King Ming, so this is more delicate.

After thinking about it for a while, the emperor set his eyes on Prince Zunshuo: "Lanze, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Lan Zer knew that King Ming's power was growing day by day, which was a threat to his father, and His Royal Highness King Ming could not be used lightly.

"Back to my father, although the candidate recommended by His Royal Highness King Ming is good, it has been a long time since he saved you, not to mention that he is now concerned about starting a family and starting a business, just taking his kung fu as an example, who can guarantee that a person who has only served as a government officer in recent years can be a town guard general?"

What Prince Zunshuo said basically refuted the face of His Royal Highness King Ming, but his worries had to be admitted as facts.

It is indeed a bit ridiculous to let a servant be the general of the town guard.

It was not easy for the other side to stabilize, and if something happened because of this, no one could afford to take this responsibility.

The people below talked a lot, and His Royal Highness King Ming seemed to be angry with the doubts in Prince Zunshuo's tone.

With a slightly ugly face, he said to Prince Zunshuo: "If you are an unreliable person, how can I bring up this matter in front of the civil and military officials in this court?" ”

"If you still have doubts, you can let him come over, and it's not too late to send them to use it when everyone really passes the test." As soon as King Ming's words came out, the people who were talking about it stopped talking.

At this time, the emperor looked at Wang Zhiqian, who had been silent: "Lord Wang, according to you, how should this matter be resolved?" ”

Wang Zhiqian pondered for a while.

"Back to the emperor, since everyone doubts whether a servant can be a good general, then it is not too late to test it according to the method of His Royal Highness King Ming just now. Moreover, the minister thought that the governor of Liangzhou had a straightforward personality and ability, so he was a good choice. ”

"The governor of Liangzhou?" The emperor didn't seem to have such a person in his head.

"Back to the emperor, the governor of Liangzhou, who used to be a royal guard, was later transferred to Liangzhou, and was slowly promoted from an assistant to the governor, and his ability is also above most people." Wang Zhiqian was full of praise for the governor.

"This governor's name is Li Yu, I have seen that kid a few times, and he is a piece of material that can become a big thing."

The emperor was worried at this time, since he had already raised this matter in front of the civil and military officials, the right candidate had been selected, but this choice was a bit difficult to make.

King Ming's military power is in his hands, and Lord Wang also has a group of supporters behind him, and it is not a good thing for him to choose anyone.

Turning his gaze to Qi Muyuan: "General Qi, this northwest war was settled by you, presumably you should also understand the situation over there, in your opinion, who is more suitable to be the general of the town guard?" ”

In fact, the general guarding the town is just a name, far away on the border, the emperor doesn't know when he will be able to remember, and there is no need to think about the promotion.

However, the more the emperor can't control the place, the greater the oil and water, and the status is there, and the local officials have to act according to the face of the town guard general.

All the military power of the place is also in the hands of the town guard general. It can be said that both sides are holding each other back.
