Tuesday, August 13, 5th year.

At eight o'clock in the morning, a temporary meeting of the cabinet and the Privy Council was held at the level of the chief of the cabinet and the Privy Council in the propaganda room of the Great Hall, at which Guan Zhong, chief minister of the cabinet and chief of internal affairs, Xu Guangqi, chief minister of industry and commerce, Bi Maokang, chief of national defense, and Li Bing, chief of water conservancy, were silent for a month.

One stone stirs up a thousand waves!

The commander of the Navy was stunned for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth went directly to the back of his ears, and he almost danced with his hands. Happiness came too suddenly!

Qi Jiguang, chief of staff from the army, and Yue Fei, commander of the army, felt the opposite, they only felt that their heads had been knocked with a dull stick, and their faces were as black as charcoal.

Similarly, Yang Pingwei, the most active foreign minister who supported the westward expansion, and Meng Tian, who acted as the deputy minister of transportation (because he presided over the construction of the Qin Zhidao and the Great Wall, Li Kang arranged him to the civil and military sequence, and rushed to serve as the deputy minister of communications.

Not only because of the fact that there were a few more powerful reinforcements sent south, but also because of the meaning behind this phenomenon.

These four people were just summoned by the king at the same time yesterday, and this can basically be heard by anyone who has a seat in the Xuanzheng room.

This is what makes the westward entrants nervous the most!

What does this mean? It shows that the Emperor Li Kang is also a southward faction, at least in his heart, he is biased towards the south, and this is fatal.

But the reality is like this, what can they do? Li Kang is a king, they are ministers, even if they are not satisfied, they can only pinch their noses and obey orders, and they must try their best to cooperate, thinking about it, there is a kind of nausea like swallowing a green-headed fly.

Some ministers whose positions are not very firm or purely speculative have repented of their bowels, and if they knew this was the case, why should they end up so early? How good it is to be like those four, always follow in the footsteps of the king, and never make mistakes.

Just when the westward faction thought that they were about to be defeated, Li Kang threw out a "double-headed eagle plan", which was really "the mountains and rivers are full of doubts, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village", and the sudden peak and turn made the westward faction breathe a sigh of relief.

The Commander of the Navy's smile stiffened slightly, and then returned to his natural back.

[That's fine, don't be too greedy!] The king is actually on the side of the navy, but he has to take care of the feelings of the army turtles, which is understandable, understandable...] Kaifeng silently comforted himself in his heart.

Now that the final tone has been set, and the debate over the previous month has come to an end, there is no point in thinking about it, and the next step is to discuss the feasibility of the double-headed eagle plan, and if so, how to implement it. A series of issues must be clearly explained in advance, otherwise we will only be in a hurry and thrown away.

However, all this is not something that can be discussed in a short period of time, and it is expected that it will not be able to stop for three or five months, and it is unrealistic to formulate a complete set of plans just by relying on a dozen or so people sitting here.

So, after a brief discussion, everyone discussed some other miscellaneous matters, and after that, Li Kang announced the adjournment of the meeting.

After Li Kang left, several hardcore westward factions stood up straight, snorted softly from their nostrils, and brushed their sleeves away.

Although they knew that Guan Zhong and the four of them supported going south because of Li Kang, they still had some unhappiness, especially Qi Jiguang and Yue Fei when they looked at Bi Maokang, and they almost engraved the word "traitor" on their faces.

Bi Maokang feels very innocent, he is at most an eccentric parent, as for having anything to do with the "traitor"?

Xu Guangqi just smiled bitterly and shook his head silently.

Li Bing was indifferent, his mind was not on this from the beginning, the goal of the people was to seal the marquis, and this time he just completed the task assigned by the king.

Guan Zhong frowned slightly, and he didn't like it in his heart.

Some people are unhappy, and naturally some people are proud.

Seeing that the annoying people were gone, Kaifeng hurriedly stood up, laughed, and kept making waves towards the four of them, saying: "The four of them are righteous, sweeping away the crowd, and returning a bright and prosperous person to China, which is really happy!

This mouth damage directly put the "westward faction" with the hat of a "group of cowards", without taking into account the fact that there were still a few bigwigs of the westward faction who did not leave, obviously, he did it on purpose.

A few bigwigs of the westward faction who didn't leave were not firm people in the first place, and they didn't leave as soon as possible, they just wanted to stay and ease the relationship, but they didn't expect that Kaifeng was so uninteresting, he was simply a wolf in the head, and his ambition was rampant!

But they have no way to refute it, who let them lose? Under the absolute superiority, they were even tied by their opponents, but they are not just losing! Their faces turned pale and black, and in the end they had to learn how to leave, and the four people who had to learn to leave snorted lightly in their nostrils and left the field in a hurry.

"Hahaha..."

Guan Zhong and the others looked at Kaifeng who was laughing wildly speechlessly, and they wanted to beat this thing to death.

No one cares about you when you fire the map cannon indiscriminately, but do we need you to pull hatred for us?

"Commander, it is better to be humble, and to be an official, you need to be humble. Xu Guangqi said lightly, and then left with his hands behind his back.

Bi Maokang glared at Kaifeng helplessly, and left with him.

"Do you want to be a lonely minister?" Guan Zhong squinted his eyes and said faintly.

"Uh..." Kaifeng was stunned, but before he could answer, Guan Zhong also left with his hands behind his back.

For a while, in the spacious Xuanzheng room, only Kaifeng was a little annoyed, and Li Bing, who was sitting there, burying his head and not knowing what he was thinking.

......

After the meeting was dismissed, Li Kang did not leave the Great Hall, but summoned Bauhinia vine and Wu Yongshi in another "homecoming room" specially for entertaining foreign guests, accompanied by Duanmuci, Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, Zhi Jing, Director of the Colonial Department, Dong Wuqiang, Zuo Zhi of the Immigration Department, Zhou Yu, Chief of Staff of the Navy (temporarily idle, the Grand Governor of Wu during the Three Kingdoms period), and Yu Tonghai, Admiral of the Second Fleet of the Navy (temporarily idle, a famous general of the Navy Division in the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasty, who participated in the water battle of Poyang Lake), Deng Zilong, deputy admiral of the Second Fleet (temporarily idle, a general in the late Ming Dynasty, who once united with the famous Korean naval general Yi Sunsin to defeat the Japanese naval division).

As for the sea shrimp, as early as the third day after his arrival in Xin'an Town, at the urging of Liu Renliang, he was sent back to Qihuan Town by Li Kang, and now he is the captain of the Fei-1, and it is said that he is very impressive.

"Xiao Wang (foreign minister) see His Excellency the Generalissimo!"

In the homecoming room, Bauhinia vine and Wu Yongshi saluted Li Kang very respectfully.

"No courtesy, please take a seat!" Li Kang smiled and held his right hand.

"Your Excellency Generalissimo Xie!"

After the two of them sat down, Li Kang began to introduce Duanmu Ci and the others who were sitting on the other side.
