Chapter 275: Irreplaceable

Who else are they in your mouth besides Zuo Xiang? ”

Qian Qianqian was a little puzzled, she only suspected Ouyang Kun in her heart, so she didn't know anyone else, but looking at Xiao Mohan's appearance, it seemed that there were others behind it.

"Feng Yuan." Xiao Mohan spit out two words lightly, and said it neatly and categorically.

"If Feng Yuan conspired with Zuo Xiang, why did he use his son, isn't it easy to expose himself?"

Qian Qianqian whispered in confusion, her brows twisted into a dead knot, and she never understood the twists and turns in this officialdom.

"Feng Yuan did not conspire with Zuo Xiang, but was used by Zuo Xiang, Zuo Xiang has been staring at his position as Shaoqing of Dali Temple for a long time, and wants to push his subordinates up, but Feng Yuan has not given way, this time he used Feng Yuan to deal with us, just to achieve his own goals."

Xiao Mohan's face was calm and calm, as if he was thinking about something in his heart, and his deep eyes were full of indescribable mystery.

"Then we can't let him get his wish." Qian Qianqian's heart was also a little surprised, Bei Yan bit her lower lip lightly, and her hands clenched into fists.

"Shaoqing of Dali Temple is a good errand, Zuo Xiang wants it, I want it too, since he pushed Feng Yuan, then I will do everything I can and take this position from his mouth."

Xiao Mohan said categorically, his sword eyebrows were slightly raised, and his thin lips were lightly hooked, as if he had already had an idea.

"And who do you want to support?" Qian Qianqian understood what he meant, and now that the position of the right minister of the court was vacant, he fought against the left minister, carefully cultivated his own power, and no one let anyone get his wish.

"Shao Huaigu." Xiao Mohan spit out a few words lightly, and said lightly.

Shao Huaigu has been doing this ceremonial job for a long time, since Ouyang Kun has become more and more unabashed about his ambitions, then the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple is better for Shao Huaigu than for Ouyang Kun's people.

On the morning of the second day, Xiao Mohan deliberately participated in Feng Yuan's book in the court, accusing Feng Yuan's son of bullying and arrogant, Feng Yuan was reprimanded by the emperor, Ouyang Kun took the opportunity to propose to remove Feng Yuan from the post of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, but the emperor was very hesitant.

"Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that what Prime Minister Zuo said is extremely true, Feng Lu's actions in the people are enough to reflect Lord Feng's official style, this kind of person is really unbearable to be entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and I also ask Your Majesty to be clear, remove Lord Feng's official position, and return the officialdom to Qingming."

Xiao Mohan remained silent, without the slightest hesitation, this was the first time he supported Ouyang Kun in the court, and the civil and military officials, as well as the emperor, were very surprised.

"Haven't you always been at odds with the left? Why do you support the left phase today? ”

The emperor looked Xiao Mohan up and down, in the eyes of the emperor, the most taboo thing is the courtiers holding together, Xiao Mohan and Ouyang Kun were not on good terms in the past, the two fought against each other, and no one dared to act rashly, but now Xiao Mohan and Ouyang Kun seem to be closer, which makes the emperor aware of the danger.

"The younger brother is just telling the truth, Lord Feng's son doesn't even pay attention to the younger brother, if it takes time, wouldn't it be lawless? Therefore, this kind of person should be dealt with well as soon as possible. ”

Xiao Mohan said it as a matter of course, and the officials behind him all looked at each other, not even daring to come out of the atmosphere, nor did they dare to openly stand up and speak for Feng Yuan.

In this entire court, the highest status is the emperor, and then Xiao Mohan and Ouyang Kun, now that both of them are proposing to remove Feng Yuan, even if the others are unwilling, they dare not openly offend the two of them.

"At present, the talents in the DPRK and China are withering, if Lian Feng Yuan is dismissed, there will be no one who can replace him for a while, won't the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple be suspended?"

The emperor raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, looking a little impatient, listening to these courtiers gossiping for so long, his brain was also confused.

"Your Majesty, Weichen ......" Ouyang Kun was about to open his mouth to recommend his own person, but Xiao Mohan took the lead and blocked Ouyang Kun's words.

"Although the official position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple is not high, he is in charge of Xiao Guo's etiquette, which is very important, so this candidate should not be hasty, rather than hastily choosing a person who is not worthy of the position, it is better to temporarily suspend the official position, let all colleagues pay attention to it first, and then recommend a suitable candidate to you after a month."

Xiao Mohan bowed his hand, a cold light flashed in his deep eyes, and his expression was subtle and mysterious, which made people completely incomprehensible.

Ouyang Kun was caught off guard by Xiao Mohan's actions, and he didn't expect to refute for a while, the emperor raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and there was no suitable candidate in his heart.

"It's okay, then according to what the emperor said, you are all on alert, pick carefully, see if there is a suitable person around you, and wait a month later, and then report to me."

The emperor nodded, and then agreed, although Ouyang Kun was unwilling, but it was not easy to clearly show anything at the moment, so he could only follow the emperor's wishes.

After the next dynasty, the emperor let Xiao Mohan stay alone, and the others withdrew from the Jinluan Palace one after another, originally Ouyang Kun still had something to say, but he didn't have that opportunity.

"In three days, the princess of Yangguo will enter Beijing, as her fiancΓ©, you should greet her in person, she is a princess, and she has a lot of status in Yangguo, you go in person, you can also show the sincerity of our Xiao Kingdom."

The emperor picked up the teacup in his hand, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, and said unhurriedly, so it was natural for Xiao Mohan to greet him personally.

"Brother Chen understands, Brother Chen will definitely go in person, please rest assured Your Majesty."

Xiao Mohan bowed, his expression calm and calm, and his sword eyebrows raised slightly, hiding the disdain and contempt in his heart.

"I heard that you had a dispute with Feng Yuan's son because of an entourage, when did you become so attentive to an entourage? It also alarmed the government, making me a little curious about that entourage. ”

The emperor's sitting posture was a little lazy, not as solemn as when facing the courtiers just now, looking Xiao Mohan up and down, his eyes were full of inquiry.

"It's just an entourage from the countryside, I haven't seen the world, so I got into trouble, even if it's an entourage, it's also a subordinate brother, how can I let others bully me? Brother Huang, do you think your brother did something wrong? ”

Xiao Mohan glanced at the emperor, lightly hooked his thin lips, and explained unhurriedly, his attitude was still respectful.

"It's right to be wrong, but if one day I insult your people, will you do the same?"

The emperor stroked the green beard on his chin, and the Jinluan Hall suddenly fell silent, and the attendants next to him were on the side, not even daring to come out.

"The whole world belongs to the royal brother, and the younger brother is just the imperial brother's courtiers, and the younger brother's people are naturally the royal brother's people, the imperial brother can do whatever he wants, how can it be regarded as a bully?"

Xiao Mohan's face did not change, he bowed his head slightly, and his every move did not cross the duty of a courtier, and this answer also made the emperor very satisfied.

"After so many years, I have so many brothers, only you know my mind best, and you can sincerely share my worries."

After a while, the emperor finally opened his mouth, with a faint smile on his face, although he was a little calculating, he was still friendly to Xiao Mohan.

"Thank you for the compliment." Xiao Mohan remained silent, bowed his head slightly, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly, so that people could not notice anything unusual.

"You have been fighting the frontier for me all these years, it's really fortunate, this time after you marry the princess of Yangguo, you will live in the capital for a long time, rest for a while, and hand over the frontier affairs to others, so that the newcomers can experience and train a few more generals for me."

The emperor looked friendly, and this sound particularly pleasant, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it was inappropriate, Xiao Mohan was in his prime, if he lived in the capital for a long time, the soldiers and horses over there would have to be dispatched by others, and when Xiao Mohan wanted to transfer troops and send generals, it would take a lot of effort.

These words sounded like sympathy for Xiao Mohan, but in fact, they wanted to take away Xiao Mohan's military power little by little, so that Xiao Mohan would have no troops in his hands, and there would be no threat.

"It is the duty of the courtier to serve the country, even if he is married, the courtier brother does not dare to forget, so thank you for the royal brother's compassion, the courtier brother is willing to guard the territory for the imperial brother forever."

Xiao Mohan knew what the emperor meant, and he didn't agree immediately, but he also said that he was loyal in front of the emperor, but he knew in his heart that the emperor's jealousy of him was not a day or two, even if he could take it this time, he would inevitably have to hand over the military power in the future, unless he had a day of great power, so that the emperor would not dare to touch him.

"Yang Guoken took the initiative to send Princess Yan to marry my Xiao Guo, which means that they will not fight our border land in the past few years, and let you go to the frontier to guard again, isn't it overkill, and let your husband and wife be separated in vain? If this is spread, the people will talk about it. ”

The emperor sighed, his face was a little helpless, and he put on a look of embarrassment, so it seemed that Xiao Mohan didn't know how to back down.

"Yang Guo wants to be scheming, and he has been coveting my Xiao Country for a long time, they are the princesses sent by them, but do you know that they are not using the princess to confuse us? Therefore, the younger brother thinks that the more at this time, the more vigilant the frontier is, otherwise it is not a cost-effective business to cut off the land for a woman. ”

Xiao Mohan said seriously, and the emperor couldn't say anything more at this time, after all, Xiao Mohan had been fighting abroad for many years and had rich experience, and there was no one in the court to compare.

"What you said is true, you are dedicated to thinking about Xiao Guo, which is really a blessing for Xiao Guo."

The emperor also took a step back, now is not the time for Xiao Mohan to hand over the military talisman, it will take some time, and when Xiao has a general who can replace Xiao Mohan, then Xiao Mohan will be useless, and when the time comes, it will be easy for him to seize the military power, Xiao Mohan and those courtiers have nothing to say.

"Brother Huang, if there is nothing to do, the younger brother will retire first."

Xiao Mohan bowed slightly, leaned over and saluted.

"Hmm."

The emperor just replied lightly, without holding back at all, Xiao Mohan took three steps back, and then slowly turned around and left the Jinluan Palace.

Although he is the same father and half-mother as the emperor, but after so many years, he knows the emperor's heart very well, so many princes and ministers in front of him have died unexpectedly, leaving Xiao Mohan alone, not that the emperor is kind-hearted, but that Xiao Mohan has made it irreplaceable.

Looking at the entire court at the moment, no one can match Xiao Mohan when it comes to leading troops to fight, even the commander of the forbidden army in this palace is trained by Xiao Mohan, Qin Li was recommended by Xiao Mohan, and got the official position of a major general, and in the future, only Xiao Mohan will be the first to look forward, so the emperor only dares to test, and does not dare to really do anything to Xiao Mohan.
