Chapter 580: Whimsical

Remember [Love Network] in one second to provide you with wonderful reading.

"Why does Ling Aiqing think that Liu Zhang will not accept the Marquis?"

Emperor Xiao Chengwen asked aloud.

In the Jinluan Palace, Ling Changzhi took a step forward.

"Your Majesty, looking at Liu Zhang's past style, it is obvious that he is a person who has one thing to say. Wei Chen deliberately looked at the notebooks that Liu Zhang handed to the court in the past few years, all of them had something to say, and never played the trick of asking for ten to five. He said that if he wanted a prince, he would only accept the king. The marquis, whether it is a two-word marquis or a one-word marquis, it is impossible for him to be satisfied. ”

"What if he is not satisfied, is he still afraid of him?" Some courtiers stood up against Ling Changzhi.

Ling Changzhi glared angrily, "If Liu Zhang is not satisfied, the north is in danger!" Unless His Majesty intends to abandon the whole of the North altogether and leave them to a mess. In this way, you can ignore Liu Zhang's request. ”

"In the current situation, the north is nominally under the rule of the imperial court, but in fact it has long been independent. Obviously, the imperial court can't control the north anymore, so why care about the thoughts of those generals. ”

"The implication is that you want to announce to the world that the imperial court has given up on the north? In this way, the previous words should be treated as if the official had not said it. ”

Ling Changzhi simply retreated to the Wenchen team and remained silent.

The ministers talked a lot.

Liu Zhang's recital, as well as Mr. Cui's resignation, touched everyone's nerves.

It's time to talk about the north, and it's time for the court to show an attitude.

It is necessary to make every effort to open up the north-south passage, transport materials, command all military generals, and strive to ensure that the northern land is under the rule of the imperial court.

Or take this opportunity to abandon the north, manage the south with all your heart, and seek another opportunity to fight back in the future?

There is no need to think about this question at all.

Emperor Xiao Chengwen said sharply: "I will not give up any inch of land under the rule of the Great Wei Jiangshan, even if this land has fallen into the hands of the thieves. Ladies and gentlemen, Hugh will mention the abandonment of the north again. If anyone gives up the north, I will give him up first! ”

"Your Majesty is wise!"

As an emperor, how can he take the initiative to give up the country.

Even if it's a desert, you can't give up.

This is the basic consciousness of being an emperor.

Even if this land will bring a great burden to the imperial court, it cannot be given up lightly.

Since he is unwilling to give up the north, how should he deal with Liu Zhang's appeal.

Do you really want to give Liu Zhang the title of king with a different surname?

The courtiers were worried.

"Since Taizu down, the Great Wei Guozuo has never had a king with a different surname for more than a hundred years. His Majesty must not start this with the title of king with a different surname, this is the way to take trouble! ”

"Liu Zhang's wolf ambition can't afford to be a loyal and good general. He has long lived up to His Majesty's expectations and the trust of the imperial court. The old minister thought that His Majesty had made a decree and severely reprimanded him to make him realize his mistake. ”

"It's true that you can't continue to indulge Liu Zhang's behavior."

"If he is made king of a different surname, all the northern part of the country will fall into his hands. At that time, will the whole territory of the north be surnamed Xiao or Liu? Your Majesty should think twice! ”

"Liu Zhang raised his troops and respected himself and blackmailed the imperial court, which can be described as a heinous crime. Please ask Your Majesty to give Yan Shouzhan an order and let Yan Shouzhan intercept and kill Liu Zhang. ”

The attitude of the courtiers was already obvious.

Except for Ling Changzhi and his faction, the other court bigwigs were all opposed to giving Liu Zhang the title of king with a different surname.

As for Lord Choi's resignation to ask for the will of the general, this matter is not important.

Since he was too sick to get out of bed, he could directly give an official document to Master Cui and ask him to return to his hometown to recuperate.

At this point, the General's Mansion can also be justifiably abolished.

Or the imperial court also selected a virtuous person to go to the front line of the northern border pass to take over the post of general of the captivity.

I'm afraid that no one will accept this errand.

The court was noisy, and Emperor Xiao Chengwen's face was calm.

Since the discussion could not produce results, he simply retreated from the dynasty and thought about it again.

……

In private, Emperor Xiao Chengwen summoned all the bigwigs in the political hall to hold a small court meeting.

"I really don't want to give a king with a different surname, but I have to guard against Liu Zhang's blatant betrayal of the court and the establishment of a puppet dynasty outside of Sima Dou. Ladies and gentlemen, do you have a good plan? ”

"Decree reprimand......"

"If you can only think of this method of issuing an edict to reprimand, you can go out and don't have to occupy the position of the government hall. Abdicate and give way to the virtuous, and give up the position to someone who has the ability and ideas. Emperor Xiao Chengwen sharply interrupted the courtiers.

Any decree and reprimand is just a fool's words.

Emperor Xiao Chengwen was very dissatisfied, seeing that several bigwigs in the political hall did not speak, his eyes sank again, and the whole person looked very gloomy.

"Ling Aiqing, do you have a good plan?"

Since no one is talking, let's name it.

Point the soldiers and generals, and directly point to Ling Changzhi.

Ling Changzhi stepped out and bowed slightly, "Your Majesty can send a capable minister, preferably someone who is familiar with Liu Zhang and can speak, to the Liangzhou Soldiers and Horses Camp to meet with Liu Zhang."

This method, firstly, can accurately understand Liu Zhang's thoughts, and secondly, to state the pros and cons to Liu Zhang, and do not make mistakes. The imperial court named him a marquis, which was enough for him to be qualified to command several troops and horses in the north. ”

Emperor Xiao Chengwen nodded, and asked again: "If Liu Zhang insists on wanting the prince, what should he do?" ”

Ling Changzhi pondered for a moment, "If he insists on having a prince, then there are only two results. One is to be the king of the court with a different surname, and the other is to be the king of his Liu family. ”

The implication is that it depends on whether the emperor wants Liu Zhang, push it out, or pull it to the side.

Emperor Xiao Chengwen frowned, his gaze swept over everyone's faces.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any other ideas?"

"Your Majesty, it is necessary to send someone to the north to meet with Liu Zhang and understand his intentions. It's just a candidate, I'm afraid it's a little difficult. Who should I choose? ”

"Up and down the court, according to the old minister's understanding, no one is familiar with Liu Zhang. The last time Liu Zhang entered the capital to face the saint, it was more than 20 years ago. In the court, there are very few people who have seen him, not to mention those who are familiar with him and can talk to him, I am afraid that no one can be found. ”

"Yes! Who should be sent to meet with Liu Zhang, and who is not afraid of Liu Zhang's power? ”

"Maybe there's a good fit?"

"Who?"

"Pingwu Marquis Shi Wen! Whether it is qualifications or strength, Pingwu Hou Shiwen is enough to suppress Liu Zhang. If Pingwu Hou Shiwen can come forward, this matter can be done. ”

"Shi Wen can't do it, never will. Shi Wen was already a wolf, and if he was sent to meet with Liu Zhang, the two would probably take the opportunity to collude together, and the imperial court would be in danger at that time, and the Great Wei would be in danger. ”

Emperor Xiao Chengwen nodded secretly, and it was indeed inappropriate to send Shi Wen.

From the bottom of his heart, he rejected the proposal.

"Shi Wen is not suitable, you Aiqing, is there anyone else?"

Hubu Shangshu stood up, "Your Majesty, the old minister recommends one person." ”

"Say!"

"Capture the general Cui, I don't know what Your Majesty wants?"

"Master Cui is so sick that he can't get out of bed, how can he go to see Liu Zhang. Don't toss, toss Master Cui to death. ”

"If you are worried about Lord Cui's ill health, then let Hou Yan of Guangning Shouzhan take a trip on his behalf. The Yan and Liu families are in-laws, and Yan Shouzhan and Liu Zhang naturally have a good relationship. Another one, the Yan and Liu families, have been fighting and making peace, and there is no need to worry about the two families colluding together. ”

"Ridiculous! This kind of thing, how can Yan Shouzhan, a reckless man, come forward. I'm afraid that if I don't agree with each other, I will turn my face with Liu Zhang, how to expect him to complete the tasks of the court. Again, Liu Zhang wants a knighthood, maybe he supports this move in his heart. At that time, he can also draw a gourd in the same way, and ask the court for a knighthood like Liu Zhang. ”

The ministers nodded again and again, disapproving of Yan Shouzhan's trip for the imperial court.

Emperor Xiao Chengwen once again named Ling Changzhi.

"Is there a suitable candidate for Ling Aiqing?"

Ling Changzhi looked hesitant and struggled.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has a candidate. I'm afraid it doesn't fit everyone's minds. ”

"Tell me about it."

"We also want to know what Lord Ling thinks."

Ling Changzhi smiled, "Your Majesty, Weichen recommended Yan Yunge as a lobbyist to take on this important task for the imperial court." ”

"Ridiculous!"

"The world's ridiculous!"

"Lord Ling, don't talk nonsense!"

"Recommending a woman to take on the responsibility of the court is simply a child's play for the affairs of the military state."

"Lord Ling, don't make a mistake."

"Please Lord Ling quickly take back what you said before, just as you didn't say it."

"Yes! How can it be so absurd. Say something that doesn't make sense. ”

Emperor Xiao Chengwen was rarely silent and remained silent.

The opposition of the bigwigs in the political hall gradually disappeared, and everyone looked at the emperor in disbelief.

No way!

Wouldn't the emperor really listen to Ling Changzhi's words and really agree with this ridiculous idea?

Oh my!

"Your Majesty, please decide!"

"Please decide who should be sent to the north to meet with Liu Zhang."

Emperor Xiao Chengwen tapped lightly on the table, one after another.

Several political bigwigs closed their mouths one after another, waiting for the emperor's next words.

Emperor Xiao Chengwen asked Ling Changzhi, "Why did Ling Aiqing recommend Yan Yunge, don't you think it's ridiculous?" ”

Ling Changzhi said solemnly: "The most critical task of sending someone to meet with Liu Zhang is to persuade Liu Zhang to give up the prince and accept the imperial court's gift of the title of Marquis. Let's ask, who in the world can fool and move people's hearts more than Yan Yunge?

With her three-inch incorruptible tongue, she let the shrewd and calculating businessmen of the world work hard for her, and dare to ask who in the world can do it? Wanting to persuade Liu Zhang and stabilize the situation in the north, Weichen thought that no one was more suitable than Yan Yunge. That's why Weichen had the courage to recommend her. ”

"That being said, she's a woman after all. How can a woman take on the heavy responsibilities of the court? ”

Objections were raised.

"Moreover, I heard that Yan Yunge is pregnant at this time, how can she leave Pingyang County and go to the north?"

"Sending Yan Yunge to the north, I am afraid that Liu Zhang will mistakenly think that the imperial court is humiliating him, and even send a woman to meet with him. The old minister still thinks that this move is inappropriate. ”

"Not really! Lord Ling was too whimsical. ”

"I know that the Ling clan has a lot of cooperation with Pingyang County, but I can't use it for private purposes."

"Your Majesty, don't listen to Lord Ling's nonsense, it's just a loss of face for the court."

Ling Changzhi insisted again and again, "Weichen firmly believes that if you want to convince Liu Zhang, there is only Yan Yunge in the world." If Yan Yunge is not suitable, he retreats to the next best thing and sends Shi Wen to the meeting. "Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience comes from Aiwang.
