Chapter 65: Civil and Military Rivalry

"If you think it's good, think about it, then do it."

Su Ruiwen only pursed the corners of his mouth slightly, he had already seen the flaw in Su Yutian's thoughts, but he wanted to let the young man have more experience, so he didn't open his mouth to remind him.

"Thank you, Father." Su Yutian thought that he had been recognized, and immediately went back to the dormitory to draft his will.

Su Yutian was full of ambition and announced his will when he went to the court the next day, but he did not expect to be opposed by the vast majority of people in the court.

"Your Majesty, this must not be done." The Ministry of Industry was the first to take the lead in opposition. Master Gu walked out of the team, pointed to a row of generals next to him, and pointed to the accusation with righteous words: "Your Majesty, look at this group of people, all of them are forceless, and they have no effect on the country's society. ”

"It's like the last time the king of Nanyang rebelled, this group of people didn't even dare to say a word, but they ate so much food and salary in the court every year. They can't listen to the heavens, they can't settle down, they have no merit and no merit, how can they afford His Majesty to raise their grades. ”

Then Master Gu knelt down in the center of the main hall, "I beg Your Majesty to take back your order, and you can't condone these people." Seeing this, the other civil officials also knelt down like him.

Su Yutian frowned and looked at the military department, "Li Aiqing, what do you think?" ”

Lord Li lowered his head and lowered his eyes, holding Yugui and arching his hand to Su Yutian: "Your Majesty, what Lord Gu said is reasonable, the ministers can't share your worries for Your Majesty, and you can't deserve Your Majesty's love so much." ”

Master Li, the secretary of the military department, is also a military general, but now he refuses to ask for benefits for himself, Su Yutian feels very strange. Su Jingye had been standing silently in the corner, and Su Yutian looked at him as if he was thinking about something, so he asked him.

"King Jing, you are the greatest contributor to quelling this rebellion, and I want to hear your opinion now."

Su Yutian's words made everyone's eyes in the hall focus on Su Jingye, Su Jingye came back to his senses, walked out, and bowed without humility or arrogance: "Back to Your Majesty's words, Weichen thinks this matter is feasible." ”

"Although His Royal Highness King Jing is a relative of the emperor, his official position is also subordinate to the military generals, and the prince said that he agreed, presumably for his own consideration." Lord Zheng, the secretary of the ministry, raised his head and glared at Su Jingye.

Su Jingye turned his head slightly and glanced at him, very strange when he had a grudge with this person, and heard Lord Gu sneer: "Lord Zheng is afraid that he doesn't know, not only that, but Princess Jing's friends are also the wives of military generals." ”

What's more, in order to make friends with the wife of Lord Li, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Princess Jing also deliberately participated in the political affairs of Mrs. Qiao. I'm afraid that the prince is worried that his princess will be isolated and helpless in the capital, so he wants to ask for more benefits for the generals. ”

"I see, the prince is really well-intentioned." Su Jingye was attacked by the crowd, and Qiao Zhai also came to fall into the well.

"My princess, why is her foot split with Mrs. Qiao, I think Master Qiao knows it." Su Jingye turned around and looked directly at Qiao Zhai, "This king doesn't say it, it's just because of the feelings of being an official in the same dynasty for this point, if Lord Qiao doesn't forgive, this king doesn't mind telling Your Majesty." ”

"Could it be that Qiao Aiqing and King Jing have had an affair, so what's the matter?" finally caught a little trick from the civil official, Su Yutian naturally wouldn't let it go.

"Your Majesty, it's just a little quarrel in a woman's family." Qiao Zhai hurriedly cleared himself and stopped talking.

Su Jingye was also impatient to continue to entangle with him, and arched his hand at Su Yutian: "Your Majesty, Weichen agrees with this matter, not for himself. ”

"Your Majesty, if you open a martial arts, you will be able to select more strange people from the people to share your Majesty's worries, defend the frontier, and prevent foreign enemies and vassal kings from having bad intentions."

"As for upgrading the grade," Su Jingye looked behind him on the left and right, raised his head and said, "Naturally, those who have merit should be rewarded, and those who have no merit should be rewarded." ”

The ancestor has passed away, and the best reward for most generals is absolutely impossible if they want to be rewarded for nothing, so although they are not convinced, they dare not say anything.

Su Yutian nodded, and then looked at the military department Shangshu, "Li Aiqing, Princess Jing is good friends with your family, do you think what King Jing said is right?" ”

Hearing this, Su Jingye frowned, but Master Li still looked calm: "That's just a handkerchief between women, Weichen, everything is subject to Your Majesty's will." ”

"Since you Aiqing have your own opinions, then put them aside for the time being, and we will discuss them later." What Su Yutian meant by this was that he listened to Lord Li's opinion, and he did not express a clear attitude towards the two views of Su Jingye and the civil officials.

In fact, Su Yutian discovered the deep contradictions between civil and military officials, so he chose to postpone it, so as not to provoke a deeper conflict. But his will made today, which has made the civil and military officials on the same footing.

Before leaving the palace gate, the civil and military officials began to sneer at each other. Su Jingye left these people's senseless fights and went home alone.

As soon as he reached the courtyard, a feathered arrow with a severed head flew to his feet. Su Jingye looked up and saw that it was Jiang Liuyu practicing pitching. It's just that this is really not good, only two arrows were hit in the pot, and at least dozens were scattered on the ground.

Jiang Liuyu was still holding the arrow, and just as she was about to throw it, she saw Su Jingye appear in the small courtyard, and she hurriedly put down the arrow to meet it. "You're back, is it going well today?"

"It's just going to the court, and it's not going to the execution ground, you don't have to worry about me so much." As soon as he saw Jiang Liuyu's face, Su Jingye's nervous heart relaxed.

He picked up the arrow that fell at his feet, walked over and put his arm around Jiang Liuyu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "This is not how the pitcher is played, your posture is not right." ”

He walked to the steps with Jiang Liuyu in his arms, let her hold her hand, and tried to keep the arrow on a horizontal line with the ground, and then threw it lightly, and the arrow just fell into the pot.

Jiang Liuyu threw herself into it in the blink of an eye, and the corners of her mouth kept rising, and she couldn't believe it. "Oh my God, why are you so good? I've been studying for a long time, but I just can't get it. ”

"As long as your hands don't tremble, your eyes are aligned, and then you can hit the shot." Su Jingye gently rubbed her head.

Jiang Liuyu fiddled with the feathers of the other arrow in his hand, pouting and muttering: "To put it simply, I've been practicing for a day, but I haven't been in it." ”

"This is also about a feel, you can practice for a long time." Su Jingye also picked up an arrow, and just wanted to throw it, but then thought of one thing, "By the way, why did you suddenly remember to learn to throw pots?" Jiang Liuyu grew up in the countryside, so naturally she would not know such a cumbersome game in the capital, someone must have told her.

Like playing with paper airplanes, he put the feather arrow to his mouth and sighed, Jiang Liuyu threw it out, but still missed. The feathered arrows landed on the ground with a crisp crashing sound.

"This is the last time Mrs. Li invited us to enjoy the flowers, the princess of the county proposed it." Jiang Liuyu exhaled helplessly, "I don't know how boring they are, thinking of this kind of game, using their own jewelry as a color head, and then winning their own jewelry back"

Pitching pot belongs to a kind of gentleman's six arts, most of the young ladies who grew up in the capital learned to throw pots from an early age, if they don't hit the pitcher, they will be ridiculed for not teaching well at home. Looking at Jiang Liuyu's craftsmanship, I am afraid that he was ridiculed a lot at that time.

Su Jingye held her arm distressedly, "If you were wronged that day, you can tell me when you come back, you don't have to hold on until now." ”

Jiang Liuyu was stunned for a moment, and raised a slight smile, "Don't worry, I wasn't laughed at much, Mrs. Li helped me." ”

"She doesn't have any friendship with you, why would she help you like this?" Hearing this title, Su Jingye felt a little familiar.

"Mrs. Li is the wife of the secretary of the military department, I hit him off at first sight, and she often helps me talk." Jiang Liuyu held his hand instead, "Like the last time I threw the pot, I really couldn't hit anything, and I almost lost the bead flower in the end, but it was Mrs. Li who spoke for me, and then fought with Mrs. Qiao back." ”

"There was just one thing, she actually returned it to me in front of everyone, which made me a little embarrassed. However, a person as good as Mrs. Li estimated that she was only in a hurry at that time, and she forgot to avoid others. ”

Jiang Liuyu let go of his hand, picked up another feather arrow, put it in his hand and turned it upside down.

"If she really wants to help you, she can win Zhuhua back in your name, or after she gets it, she will return it to you before she leaves at night, how can she let you not get off the stage in public?" The more Su Jingye thought about it, the more strange it became.

"Liuyu, you should stay away from them in the future, these women in the mansion have a lot of twists and turns in their hearts, I'm afraid you will suffer at a loss."

"I see." After all, I have watched so many plots of house fights and palace fights, so I won't be deceived so badly. Jiang Liuyu tilted her head and thought about it, but what happened in the past few days really caught her off guard.

It was only yesterday that His Majesty issued a decree to select military attachΓ©s, but today there was great news, and it was impossible to survive even a peaceful night.

It is said that in the middle of yesterday night, a military general and a historian had a quarrel at Goolan Washe, and the military general beat the historian in a fit of anger.

This general's name is Yuan Bing, and he is a loyal and brave marquis's concubine, because the marquis's son-in-law died early, Su Ruiwen was grateful for the bravery of Zhongyong Hou, so he gave him this concubine a shadow official position.

The beaten historian Wang was the first champion in the imperial examination during Su Yutian's reign. The conflict between these two is not only a conflict between civilian officials and military attachΓ©s, but also involves the faces of Su Yutian and Su Ruiwen.

Su Jingye could imagine how gloomy and terrifying Su Yutian's face was when he learned the news. When the hour came, the little eunuch came out and called the ministers to the court.

It can be seen from the expression of the little eunuch that because of last night's incident, Su Yutian is in a particularly bad mood today. The generals trembled one by one, but the ministers were arrogant and stepped into the hall with their sleeves flicked.
