Chapter 222: Recommendation
Chapter 223: Recommendation
Qiao Zheng hurriedly said: "After the summer, the minister is indeed old, and recently, he often feels backache, which is really ......."
Li Xia smiled lightly, knowing that he was still not at ease in his heart, and if Ram Tuo did not take over as the high priest for a day, he would not be able to feel at ease for a day.
Lixia said: "Okay, then do it according to the will of the high priest, anyway, the high priest is just saying goodbye to the old man and returning home, and he is not in the ground for peace, if there is anything unclear about the ram Tuo, he will naturally go to you." ”
Li Xia deliberately said ugly words, not only because he was angry in his heart, but also to cater to Qiao Zheng's mind, people's minds are actually very strange, if you are harmonious with him, he will think that you are calculating him, it is better to show his unhappy emotions, he is at ease.
Turning the heavenly court, Qiao rushed out in front of Gu Du and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is old, and he has been unable to do it recently, so please ask the emperor's quasi-ministers to return home." ”
Emperor Ze was a little worried, because Lixia told him that Qiao Zheng wanted to recommend Ram Tuo to succeed him as the high priest, although Gu Du had already said that he would never take over the Imperial Spirit Division, but in front of Gu Du, Emperor Ze couldn't help but be a little weak-hearted.
At the same time, Emperor Ze was also angry in his heart, since Qiao Zheng had made up his mind, he should have played a note in advance, but he had to wait until Gu Du came back and said in front of Gu Du.
Emperor Ze said with a cold face: "I see that the high priest's body is still very strong, why do you want to sue the old man?" Could it be that I have made some mistake that the High Priest is unwilling to assist me anymore? ”
Li Xia frowned slightly, why did Emperor Ze play with a child's temper again? Didn't you say it was okay last night? Why do you change your mind when it comes to things?
Qiao Zheng knelt down, kowtowed and said: "The emperor is angry, the minister has no two hearts, the minister has been in office for more than 20 years, and he has not built the size of the work, and now he is old and faint, and he really does not dare to do the matter of a corpse vegetarian meal again, and please ask the emperor to understand the situation of the minister." ”
Emperor Ze still had a calm face, Gu Du went out and said: "Your Majesty, the high priest has served for many years, and he has always been dedicated to his duties and honest officials, besides, birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature, or the high priest has some kind of hidden disease, it is inconvenient to announce it, and please ask the emperor to calm his anger." ”
Gu Du came out to speak, and Emperor Ze suddenly thought about it, and said: "Uncle Guo is right, then I will allow Qiao Zheng to play, I think that this position of high priest is none other than Uncle Guo." ”
Lixia and Qiao Zheng were shocked at the same time, and Lixia was so shocked that Emperor Ze was good at making claims and muddying the things that were good. Qiao Zheng was shocked that he might have been deceived by Gu Du and Lixia, and let him be the court to sue for his old age, and then Emperor Ze directly ordered Gu Du to succeed him.
But the matter has come to this point, Qiao Zheng is already difficult to ride a tiger, and he can't rush to speak, so he can only see what Gu Du does.
Gu Du knelt down, lowered his head and said: "The minister will not give up on the emperor, when the minister is at the end of his life, he not only takes in the minister, but also entrusts him with important tasks, even if the minister is full of liver and brain, it is difficult to repay the emperor's grace in case of emergency, but with all due respect, the minister is by no means the right person to succeed the high priest." ”
Emperor Ze frowned, Qiao Zheng maintained a bowing posture, and everyone didn't speak, because although Gu Du said this, things may not be decided like this, because the high priest is the same as the third duke, even if Gu Du is the uncle of the country, if he wants to succeed, he must first push and concede.
Dongfang Bin hesitated a little, from the perspective of his own interests, Gu Du is the most suitable to take over as the high priest, but the identities of Gu Du and Lixia are there, if they really want to succeed as the high priest in this way, Zeguo is afraid of civil strife, and it is easy to be suspicious of the monarchs and ministers in the future.
Gu Du said again: "The minister recommends one person, please consider it." ”
Qiao Zheng chuckled in his heart, and suddenly understood that Gu Du didn't have to be a high priest himself, he just needed to push an obedient person up, which not only relieved himself, but also held the real power.
Just when Qiao Zheng was heartbroken, Gu Du said: "The minister recommends Ram Tuo." ”
Qiao Zheng was stunned when he heard this, and unconsciously looked up at Li Xia, thinking that Li Xia had communicated with Gu Du in advance, they were making a show for the hundred officials, but he was also a little stunned when he saw that Li Xia.
Ram Tuo was shocked into a cold sweat, hurriedly went out of class and knelt down, kowtowed and said, "Don't dare to be a minister!" Even if the uncle is unwilling to take over the Imperial Spirit Division, the chief priest should take the throne, and please ask the emperor to know it. ”
Gu Du said: "The chief priest can't do it, he is also old." ”
Dongfang frowned, this son-in-law, there is no more than nothing, fortunately I have known him for a long time, otherwise I would have to treat him as a white-eyed wolf.
Ram Tuo was stunned for a moment and said, "That...... That there is also from the priests. ”
Gu Du said: "It's not good from the priest, he's not as good as you." ”
Qiao Zheng had mixed feelings in his heart, and suddenly came to his senses, when Gu Du asked Li Xia to reassess the spirit masters, these two people naturally knew all the spirit masters well.
Yesterday he said to Lixia that he wanted to recommend the ram Tuo, and Lixia agreed without hesitation, and today Gu Du personally recommended the ram Tuo, so it can be seen that Gu Du does not care about the fame and fortune of power, but also in a public spirit, and at the same time, it also proves that when Gu Du first came to Zeguo, he just wanted to avenge the princess of Xiaoguo.
Emperor Ze sighed faintly, he also came to his senses, Gu Du and Qiao Zheng both recommended Ram Tuo, which was the first step to balance the situation and reorganize the dynasty.
Zeguo is no longer the poor and weak small country in the past, and after ten years of conquest, it has been on an equal footing with the Spirit Kingdom.
As Gu Du said, at this point, you can no longer pass the time, you must have rules, there are no rules, there is no circle, and no rules are unpopular.
Zedi said: "Three Aiqing, get up and speak." ”
"Your Majesty." The three of them agreed in unison and got up one after another.
Gu Du said again: "Your Majesty, when the minister asked the Empress Xia to re-evaluate the level of the Imperial Spirit Master, only the Ram Tuo was alone, and his strength was close to the black robe, and now ten years have passed, he has already been promoted to the black robe, and has already had a first glimpse of the Great Imperial Spirit Master, and he is loyal and steady, and the Ram Tuo is in charge of the Imperial Spirit Division, which is more suitable than the minister, and the minister is also relieved, since he will avoid the pain of the sword soldier again in the future, and the minister will lack the pain." ”
Ram Tuo hurriedly said: "Uncle Guo, please listen to the words of humble duty, Uncle Guo has been fighting for many years, Ze is the world, and the people are ......."
"Fart!" Gu Du scolded him sharply, and everyone was so shocked that he was stunned, and Ram Tuo was even more stunned on the spot.
Gu Du said sharply: "Ze is the emperor in the world!" If it weren't for the emperor's benevolence, how could Zeguo be united in the integration of the military and the people? How could I, a traitor, be willing to fight for Zeguo? ”
"It is the soldiers who are blessed with all the people! If it weren't for them going forward and fighting one after another, how could they get this Qingming and prosperous era and steam the national strength? Can I do it alone? Are you trying to frame me for your high achievements and deliberately seeking the country? ”
His words made Ram Tuo sweat profusely, and hurriedly said: "Humble duty, please calm your anger, humble duty is definitely not that meaning, it's just a momentary urgency, incoherent." ”
