Chapter 107: Petition for Nomination

"Li Aiqing's suggestion is very good, firstly, it can not only solve those barbarians in South Vietnam, but also contain the Han King, which is a way to kill two birds with one stone, not bad."

Chu Xiuran nodded with great satisfaction.

Seeing that Chu Xiuran was very satisfied with his proposal, the corners of Li Lei's mouth unconsciously rose, and a smile of successful trickery inadvertently appeared.

Immediately, he frowned and said with a little hesitation: "But...... There's another problem. ”

Chu Xiuran saw Li Lei's brows tightened, and he couldn't help but look at Li Lei. Positive color channel:

"Li Aiqing, let's talk about it, what's the problem?"

Hearing this, Li Lei thought for a moment, shook his head, and said with a sigh:

"His Royal Highness the King of Han was originally guilty of a capital crime, and if this petition was made by His Royal Highness the King of Han, it doesn't seem to have much effect......"

When Chu Xiuran heard this, he felt that what Li Lei said was very reasonable.

"Then who does Li Aiqing think is more appropriate to set up this nomination?"

Chu Xiuhan was alone, as if there was really nothing that could hold him back.

When Li Lei heard this, the opportunity to secretly say that he had come, straightened his figure, looked at Chu Xiuran, and said solemnly:

"The minister thinks that since Prime Minister Xiao Cheng strongly recommended His Royal Highness the King of Han to suppress the barbarians of South Vietnam, then it is naturally more appropriate for Prime Minister Xiao to set up this nomination, first, the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Han Palace's Mansion were originally in-laws, so it is naturally reasonable to set up this nomination, and secondly, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng has a very high prestige in the court, and Prime Minister Xiao Cheng will definitely make people more convincing to set up this vote, Your Majesty, what do you think of the minister's suggestion?"

Li Lei explained the reasons for this in a straightforward manner, and after speaking, his eyes were still staring at Chu Xiuran without blinking, waiting for Chu Xiuran to make a conclusion.

And Prime Minister Xiao Cheng on the side listened to Li Lei's words, and he was so angry that his heart trembled, and Li Lei made it clear that he wanted to push him into the fire pit.

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng had a raging anger in his heart, but because he was above the court, and Li Lei's words seemed reasonable to outsiders, but in fact they were strong words, he couldn't refute them at the moment.

"Prime Minister, what do you think of Lord Li's suggestion?"

Chu Xiuran did not answer Li Lei's words, but looked at Prime Minister Xiao Cheng with interest and asked.

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng is now a little difficult to ride a tiger.

All the discerning people in this hall can see that Li Lei just wants to take this opportunity to suppress Prime Minister Xiao, and maybe if he is lucky, he can bring down Prime Minister Xiao in one fell swoop.

Li Lei's mind is like Sima Zhao's heart, which is known to passers-by! Chu Xiuran naturally didn't understand.

However, he can't manage so much at the moment, the top priority is to deal with those South Vietnamese barbarians as soon as possible, and successfully restrain Chu Xiuhan, this is the point.

He didn't have time to pay attention to the struggle between these courtiers, so Li Lei's method, although it seemed a little damaged, was indeed a feasible and good method.

It's just a prime minister, it's a big deal to choose another one without him, anyway, once the affairs of South Vietnam are under control, he will also eliminate those forces who oppose him in the court, or even maintain neutrality, and only those who are loyal to him will be left around him.

Everyone turned their eyes to Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, waiting for his answer.

When Prime Minister Xiao heard this, he didn't speak immediately, he guessed that this Li Lei was definitely not at ease, but he didn't expect that this Li Lei would involve the entire Prime Minister's Mansion behind him.

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng gritted his teeth with hatred for Li Lei at this moment, his hands clenched into fists under the wide sleeved robe, and he greeted Li Lei's ancestors for eighteen generations one after another.

Looking up at Chu Xiuran, his eyes were firm, and he said, "Your Majesty, the minister can do his part for the Great Chu, the minister ...... Die without regrets! ”

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng knew very well in his heart that he had to stand up for this name, but he was very glad that his two daughters had already married out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and even if the incident happened in the future, it would not affect his two daughters.

Today, he made this vote, firstly, he was able to protect the rivers and mountains of this great Chu, and secondly, rescuing Chu Xiuhan could be regarded as fulfilling a wish of his youngest daughter.

He has always felt guilty about Xiao Ruoxi, since he was a child, he has never taken good care of him, and now, this can be regarded as the last bit of compensation for her!

In the future, under Jiuquan, he will also have an explanation for Jingjing.

"Haha...... Good. ”

Obviously, Chu Xiuran was very satisfied with Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's reply, and he was immediately happy.

"The prime minister is worthy of being a loyal minister of my two dynasties, and this matter has been decided, retreat from the dynasty."

After Chu Xiuran finished speaking, he left the council hall with great interest, and it could be seen that he was in a very good mood at the moment.

As soon as Chu Xiuran left, the previously suppressed atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a lot more relaxed.

Everyone turned their eyes on Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's body, constantly looking up and down.

In these eyes, there are sympathetic and mocking, of course, most of them are more mockery than sympathy, but everyone did not step forward to say anything to Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, but shook their heads one after another, and left the council hall.

But among them, there will always be a few who want to come forward to taunt and show off, after all, the forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds.

For example, Li Lei is not a good bird.

"Cheng is loyal to Da Chu's iron courage and righteousness, which is really admirable!"

Li Lei stepped forward, and there was a smug look on his face that couldn't be hidden.

Prime Minister Xiao looked at Li Lei's villainous face, full of disdain, and said:

"When the national disaster is at hand, it's better to do your part than some villains who can only survive by stealing their lives."

Xiao Cheng sneered at Li Lei, and his words were also full of sarcasm, and after speaking, he no longer paid attention to the somewhat unhappy look on Li Lei's face, flicked his robe, and turned around and left the political hall.

Li Lei was so angry by Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's words that he gritted his teeth, looked at the back of the dashing departure, and shouted angrily:

"You'd better pray that His Royal Highness King Han won't rebel, otherwise, your Prime Minister's Mansion will be over."

Li Lei jumped angrily in the back, but Prime Minister Xiao only gave him a gorgeous back, never looked back at him at all, and left straight away.

……

"Princess, His Royal Highness King Yan has come down and said that he wants to see you."

Xiao Ruoxi was sitting in front of the dressing mirror, watching Lian Xiang help her choose the bead flowers to wear today, Chunyin suddenly came in from outside the door and said to Xiao Ruoxi very respectfully.

"Chu Xiuyan?"

Xiao Ruoxi was a little stunned for a while, why did he come? She also thought that after Chu Xiuhan's matter was resolved, she would personally come to the door to thank him, but he came to the door in person.

"Where is he now?"

Although I don't know this person who has never been to the Han Palace, cough cough, at least since she married into the Han Palace, she has not seen Chu Xiuyan come.

But now that everyone has come, she has to see him anyway, let's see what he has to do.
